I am not sure this is a problem: we want uploads from people who signed the CLA, and having a FAS account is pretty much a CLA confirmation. Also, someone with a FAS account can take an image with the right license (CC-BY) from other source and post it while crediting the original author. After all, we need the submitters to have an account *somewhere*, as a confirmation of their identity (CLA, CC-BY), so better have this in our court instead of relying on a closed 3-rd party (which is now in business with our main competitor, Microsoft). -- nicu :: http://nicubunu.ro :: http://nicubunu.blogspot.com/ photography: http://photoblog.nicubunu.ro/ my Fedora stuff: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro/ _______________________________________________ design-team mailing list design-team@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/design-team
