Description:
------------
On the last release of Structures_DataGrid, when writing the ChangeLog, I have tried to thank every contributor, especially the great people that report bugs.

But why are the PEAR bug reports anonymous ? E-mail addresses are no names, my Changelog enumerates many "Thanks foo at bar dot com" pointless statements.

For example, in Debian, changelogs properly name every one who report bugs. That recognition is important for people to come back and report more bugs.

The solution simply is to add a Name field to the bug report form (first field?). It wouldn't be required but I believe that most people would fill it.

good point, it is on its way.
 [2006-02-19 21:17 UTC] pajoye@php.net 
This bug has been fixed in CVS.

If this was a documentation problem, the fix will appear on pear.php.net by the end of next Sunday (CET).

If this was a problem with the pear.php.net website, the change should be live shortly.

Otherwise, the fix will appear in the package's next release.

Thank you for the report and for helping us make PEAR better.
