Description Richard Ishida 2012-08-02 11:22:46 UTC
I've been looking through the results as I update the i18n HTML5 test result pages (to use the new API).  There are a sufficient number of unexpected and duplicate results that I'm beginning to suspect that someone is either very careless or deliberately throwing in random results. I see an IP address, but I don't know how to identify who the individual is, so that I can contact them and discuss what's happening.

I'd like it to be possible for test suite owners to obtain the name and email address of the person submitting a result.  Since I'm about to publish results pages that pull in live copies of the database results, I'd like work on this new feature to be close to the top of the stack.
