This might be a bit tricky for “anonymous” issues. Maybe a partial email address should be shown as to not expose it in a public mailing list?

This is a bit tricky indeed. I prefer to be on the safe site and keep email addresses safe within the boundaries of YellowGrass. I prefer not to have other people’s names pop up on the web because of YellowGrass.

Yes, I don’t really know how to fix that. Showing it like “sandervermolen AT foo DOT com” seems to be the most common solution, but is not ideal. Anyway, showing non-anonymous submitters would be a start :)

Using sandervermolen AT foo DOT com is indeed a common solution for people who intend to put their email address and name on the web. However, this would violate privacy of people who do not intend to do this (and would violate Dutch privacy legislation). On the other hand, adding it for subscribed users is indeed a good first step. Will do this.

I added reporter names to the notification emails. I also added names of users that close or reopen issues.
