What's to remember? The form requires input; on many forms I use periods (.) if it is an alpha field and 123-456-7890 if it is looking for a tel number (US). This lets the person looking at the bug report know that my number is none of his/her business. Sometimes the street name is mindyourownbusiness or restricted info drive. > If this were an idiotic site (like ibm or NYTimes) that requires me to > login to read an article, then I may fudge some info.

Seriously, obscuring one's personal data is not the same as being a butthead.. well, maybe a little, but since no one needs the info, they shouldn't ask for it in the first place. > My *perception* is that Novell's coporate culture is killing the open in > opensuse, and that is unfortunate, IMO, as this is generally a great > distro.
