[Tracker-discuss] Obtaining names of bug/patch submitters

In

http://psf.upfronthosting.co.za/roundup/meta/issue133

display of the real name is requested; this has not been implemented
yet.

You should be able to find the real name through

http://bugs.python.org/user

Type the username in search, and it should bring up the user's record.

I say "should" because it might be that I can do this only because
I also have the Coordinator role; if you find it doesn't work for
you and you also also want the Coordinator role, please let me know.

Regards,
Martin
