Bug description: Name field in the report form
Description:
------------
On the last release of Structures_DataGrid, when writing the ChangeLog, I
have tried to thank every contributor, especially the great people that
report bugs.
But why are the PEAR bug reports anonymous ? E-mail addresses are no
names, my Changelog enumerates many "Thanks foo at bar dot com" pointless
statements.
For example, in Debian, changelogs properly name every one who report
bugs. That recognition is important for people to come back and report
more bugs.
The solution simply is to add a Name field to the bug report form (first
field?). It wouldn't be required but I believe that most people would fill
it.
