Hi, Please make e-mail addresses (like, in the assign-to listbox and comments) hidden to anonymous (non-logged-in) visitors. Putting everyone's e-mail in plain text isn't very nice - not only you expose all users' e-mail addresses to the public without any warning whatsoever, you are also giving out a nice list of e-mails to spam bots (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spam_bot). E-mail addresses are hardly a necessity for people who can't be bothered to create an account, and I'm sure your users (who just want to help improve D) wouldn't appreciate the influx of spam they'd get by signing up here. Thanks, -- Vladimir

If the upstream bugzilla product adds this feature, I'll enable it. But I'm not going to write the code.
