Description Mateusz Piotrowski freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2018-04-24 21:55:18 UTC 
Would it be possible to add a note on the registration page[1] that the Username field is not writable because the username is derived from the user's email address? It seems to confuse people who would like to sign up and contribute (based on what I was told in during a private conversation).

Resolved. new registration has appropriate text: https://www.dropbox.com/s/blsr07uqtwtimuj/Screenshot%202018-04-24%2017.12.13.png?dl=0

also makes it clear that email address is public

Great!

Do you think that it is possible to get rid of that "Required" text on the right side of Username row?
