I agree with the reasoning, and that change is fine with me.
But still, it would be cool to do a survey to check everybody's feeling
about since it somehow relates to anonymity, even if not as much as in
the good old days because of the reasons that you mentioned. You know,
sometimes feelings and reason doesn't go hand-in-hand.
If so, then this should be part of the decision process on the advanced
ISO building automation that we will be working on hopefully in 2015.
And I could create a ticket for that.
