"All" is a big word here ;o)). I was Member of one of the largest FOSS communities (think of three "O" two upper case, lower case the last) for many (some 7 or 8) years, where it was obligatory to get a mailadress just to have an account for some (by far not all) community resources (issuetracker). So You did oversee at least one.. And the best: there was no way to get rid of it! No way to delete the account :o)). Seriously I think in respect of our (the successor of the above) project size we have to go our own way. And I continue thinking it wasn't to bad to get "a member" that easy.
