Michael Osipov edited comment on MSHARED-362 at 1/2/16 9:07 PM: ---------------------------------------------------------------- I don't like the local machine username. At work, you see the uploader username in Nexus anyway. What if an OSS JAR contains a cryptic name, this won't help anyway. The reward is fine but since I do the votes and announces, my display name is visible to the entire community. I can live with that. People don't unzip JARs to read credit information ;-) I cannot even globally override that to add my display name instead of my local username. The problem is that in my company the username is a generated ID (company-internal personal ID) and considered as company-only information. I don't want this information to be public, therefore I avoid to deploy snapshots or releases from work. I agree to the original request. The issue is that the remaining entries are reproducible (Maven version, Java version) but not the username. Even if we add {{addDefaultEntries}}, the removal would lose a lot of information, plus Plexus Archiver adds a {{Created-By}} by default. was (Author: michael-o): I don't like the local machine username.
