+Valid concern - although this may not be the biggest source of your spam.
+
+&gt;<i> Users should contact packagers vis email, they should file a bug report or

+</I>
+Provided they are guided (website, readmes, tutorials), they will file
+a bug report .People that do read changelog are of a more technical
+type and if they do contact you directly, that may be legitimate.
+
+&gt;<i> With regards to real names, not everybody likes to publically use their

+</I>
+Why?
+
+&gt;<i> Mandriva was a company so that was a different situation.
+</I>
+Why? Mageia has a legal structure (Mageia.org), and is still a
+serious, dependable project.
+
+&gt;<i> In a lot of FOSS projects all contributors are only known by their nicknames
+</I>&gt;<i> so that's common practice.
+</I>
+In all that I can think of, people use their nickname, yes, but have
+too a clearly stated real name and email contact available.
+
+And that's not only common, but good practice to know who is actually
+packaging some software for a distribution.
+
+&gt;<i> At the very least each packager should be able to decide him/herself if
+</I>&gt;<i> they want their real name or their nickname to appear in the rpm
+</I>&gt;<i> changelogs.
+</I>
+Depends on the project policy - maybe to be written down.
+
+As for me, I find it a better, elementary indication of reliability
+and trust to have packagers real name and email contact available
+there. But that's me.
