I think e-mail address is something personal and sensitive and is out of the reach of CUs and nowhere in Wikipedia is compulsory. Additionally, Pywikibot may be used in various MW installations of which we don't know anything in advance. Thus not a very good idea.

What was the goal of including the username? Is it worth? The price should not be bigger then the advantage.

Hello all,

1- Don't forget about the bug triage. The blog post just published so you can read and use it to advertise.

2- As our talk in here  I want to make a patch to add username in user-agent in header of API calls. but only ISO 8859 is being supported and usernames can be anything (utf-8). For usernames that might not compatible, people need to put e-mail address in user-config.py. Is it okay for you? Any comments?

Best
