In the current system you don't have to login. But your details are kept in a cookey, in case you post again from the same browser. I currently don't find a need for a login, unless we want to go beyond a simple weblog. This also means that we'll have less anonymous posts (because you don't have to login to become non-annonymous) > > > > If we don't want to hold a users table other then for admins and not track > > any passing user, then this field will hold the user's name, and another > > field will hold his email.

Is it also running on Zope? The FAQ is running as a separate system: FaqOMatic.
