Not any more than the fact that you can't change the license without agreement of people you can't, for other reasons, get in touch with. I don't think a real name does any more than pseudonyms there: if you have no means of contact (e.g. person is MIA, person no longer has this e-mail address, ...) you have a problem, unrelated to whether the person used a pseudonym or not. If you want to use the real name as a proof of identity to validate a yay or nay to license change: that doesn't work either. So personally I don't think it does much or even any difference there. Kind regards, Christian
