Hi,

What's the current status of this? Using a site that uses sreg, but isn't on a launchpad
whitelist I can only get nickname to be provided by lp, regardless of whether e.g. fullname
is said to be required. The original bug says:

so that explains that.

My observations of the current behaviour suggest that the nickname is unrestricted, but
the fullname and email will not be sent to unknown sites. It would be great to at least
give the user the option of allowing them to be sent, otherwise you can get reduced
or no functionality on other sites.

Thanks,

James
