Some don't. I don't. I > like knowing who wrote what. ... For what it's worth (I know: not much), I like the named asserts in Reiser4/Reiserfs. Although I haven't been bitten by any BUGs yet (maybe I'm just lucky), whenever I see these on the mailing list, it gives the impression that the users are interacting more directly with the developers, and it helps us to get to know the developers better. If people really want more standard-looking identifiers, I think Namesys should keep the names and make a hybrid identifier, like "nikita-123(:)" -- Hubert Chan - http://www.uhoreg.ca/ PGP/GnuPG key: 1024D/124B61FA Fingerprint: 96C5 012F 5F74 A5F7 1FF7 5291 AF29 C719 124B 61FA Key available at wwwkeys.pgp.net.
