I would like to see that kind of coherence. I think anything that gets in the way of someone getting in is in danger of holding someone off from contributing something, be it wiki edits, bug reports, or packages. One might also ask about the mailman lists here.

The inability to authenticate using one of my OpenIDs is a major factor keeping me from bothering to submit bug reports and edit wiki pages.

I've also had fruitless discussions about adding OpenID authentication to Roundup.

Gmane allows me to use NNTP without requiring authentication to participate in the discussion forums.
