Well.. being critical about fedora is fine but some haters take all
opportunity to promote the os that they do like or believe in so that
might be a problem. And i can imagine that the fedora planet doesn't
want to much negative fedora publicity on it's own planet about it's
own os.

i didn't look at it in the last few months. But making a key (which i
never use and will lose) which was required last time i checked is one
of the things that i don't like to supply simply because i don't
want/need it (not for the moment). Also the requirement to fill in my
last name bothers me. I like to be registered there with just my
nickname and nothing more. And if i need to fill it in than certainly
not __public__! I must have the ability to just use a name without
supplying a last name. Without that i'm not gonna register.

Just:
Username
Firstname
Lastname (optional)
Password
Email
And done!
