Considering that there are a couple of responses and the fact that you 
<br/>guys are so easily offended, I will not answer everyone but just state 
<br/>couple of theses.
<br/><br/><br/>0. I will not reveal my real name, because I value privacy. Nickname is 
<br/>sufficient for identification purposes. Any other information (real 
<br/>name, address, etc.) is not needed for actually contributing code. Think 
<br/>of principle of least privilege.
<br/><br/>1. I could easily make up some human-looking name (Satoshi Nakamoto 
<br/>anyone?), but will not do it out of principle (see #0).
<br/><br/>2. Knowing contributor's &quot;real&quot; name would not guard you against any 
<br/>possible malicious actions from him, because it can't be verified (see 
<br/>#1). One can also make up address, and even signature, if needed, and I 
<br/>bet no one would spot it.
<br/><br/>3. I don't buy argument about requirements of some organizations. Linux 
<br/>kernel is used in billions of devices and by countless organizations, 
<br/>and I highly doubt that contributing to Linux requires anything like 
<br/>singing an agreement or whatever.
<br/><br/>4. Even in paid services checking a checkbox is usually sufficient for 
<br/>accepting any license/ToS.
<br/><br/>5. My intentions are mostly of pragmatic nature. To make things that I 
<br/>use (and that can be useful to Pharo users) be in upstream.
<br/><br/>6. I don't care whether you drink beer, your political views, or your 
<br/>interpersonal relationships (however story with Benjamin shows that 
<br/>perhaps everything's not as great as you paint it). These are all 
<br/>irrelevant to Pharo development, from my point of view at least.
<br/><br/>7. If you don't agree with my arguments and stick to your rules, go for 
<br/>it. I'm in no position to tell you what's the right thing to do. I'll 
<br/>just end this discussion and leave.
<br/>
