I'm not clear how your W3C account was approved; regardless, one of the primary demands of participating in the W3C (even in Community Groups) is abiding by the W3C's handling of intellectual property (primarily the Patent Policy <https://www.w3.org/Consortium/Patent-Policy-20170801/> and the Contributor License Agreement <https://www.w3.org/community/about/agreements/cla/>), and that requires using real names. (This is not "discriminating based on names" - it is needed in order to identify what IP commitments are made by participants.) . There are many FAQ answers <https://www.w3.org/2003/12/22-pp-faq> collected over the past twenty years or so on this. Without this commitment in place, we have to object to accepting any contributions from an unknown source. -Chris On Wed, Oct 16, 2019 at 6:11 AM guest271314 <guest271314@gmail.com> wrote: > We are waiting on legal advice to see if we can allow you to participate. >> You haven't acted in good faith by using "guest271314" (instead of your >> real name) when asked to abide by the following ([4] in particular, and >> you've violated [3] multiple times): > > [1] https://www.w3.org/community/wicg/ > [2] https://www.w3.org/community/agreements/ > [3] https://www.w3.org/Consortium/cepc/ > [4] https://www.w3.org/community/agreements/cla > > Refute the claims that have not and am not acting in "good faith" by using > the very distinctive real name guest271314.
