I agree with the idea of a standard, or at least "strongly suggested" signature format-- especially where multi languages are concerned.

But we're still in pilot so let's continue watching this evolve and perhaps we'll settle into a good approach organically.

When the pilot ends (I have no date set, but figure another week) we can see what seems to be working best. But ultimately, I only want to provide suggestions (the wiki page will hold templates) and allow Greeters the freedom to customize their approach. Basically we need some certain consistent information (like Greeter id) and the rest can be up to the individual.

I do want to say I am amazed, impressed and pleased with the enthusiasm so far and it is very gratifying to drop into a random thread somewhere in this forum and see Greeter signatures. That alone proves the value.

The speed with which this took off still blows me away. We should have done something like this long ago.
