Ok, perhaps I need to put my foot in my mouth and explain where I'm
coming from with this. There are a number of reasons I'd like to see
full names on patches instead of just nicknames. These include:
- Simply looking more professional.
- Not offending anyone. ie: who wants patches from say, "PenisFace1000"
- This is what other Arch-related projects are doing (see pacman for a
  good example)

Now, that said. Alright I'm sure there are people out there who don't
want their names flying around the net. That's cool and all, but I'd
really heavily prefer to use real names. If it's really really an issue
for you, fine, submit patches under whatever non-offensive alias.
