Thanks all for your feedback! it really great to hear your notes...

Just one thing:

Everyone during the registration process had the option to select which
lines and titles will be printed on his badge. We didn't want to print
things that people not asked (as some people even select not to print their
personal name). For our perspective, WMF staff are also part of
the community, and it's for them (or the foundation) to decide which titles
will be printed
