I don't know the exact proposed rules here, but I could imagine that without these rules anyone cann fill the namespace of nice Debian user names. And there is the danger that someone hijacks the user name of a Debian user who is still not on Salsa. Or an emeritus name or so. I would also like to have a visible distinction between "trusted" names (where the owner is verified via key) and random names, in one way or the other. Cheers Ole
