Pekka,

E-mail address are useful data. Anyhow, I would not able to replay to
you without using your address ;-)

.... and how to know which "John Smith" is the real participant?

+1 for Brian Carpenter

Thanks,

Géza

I agree with Alissa that having an explicit privacy policy would be a

Indeed, but why do the blue sheets ask for an email address?  I'm not
interested in receiving any mail (e.g. product advertisements loosely
related to the IETF protocols) based on my writing my email on the blue
sheets.  I accept it's good for disambiguation though asking for affiliation
might achieve the same.  If anyone would be able to get the blue sheets,
they probably shouldn't get the email addresses. Having to write a privacy
policy would require ironing out these small details which might be a goog
thing.
