   Thanks for adding your perspective.
   
   I'm trying to fix a problem that doesn't affect infra. It affects secretary.
   
   This handy tool (thanks, sebb) shows that there are many cases where we have 
accepted ICLAs from people ostensibly with the same names:
   https://whimsy.apache.org/secretary/icla-dupes 
<https://whimsy.apache.org/secretary/icla-dupes>
   
   We have not had a consistent policy for handling people with the same names, 
and we should do so. I'd suggest a different thread for that discussion.
   
   But not having a policy is not a good reason to not know that we have a 
conflict.
