    Hi aefasdfasf asdgasdfafds
    Thanks for your comment, the error has now been fixed. Would you be nice enough to edit your profile and put in your real name? Although we haven’t published any restriction from using aliases, the intent for InfoQ discussions is to maintain a level of professionalism, in which using real names is an important factor. Thank you again.
