Although, I'd have to agree with you 95% of the time except some users do not prefer using their real name because of privacy reasons (although I tend to think that using alias != being cracker and not necessarily == doing stuffs that are dodgy). Although, as news/history tend to show us criminals tend to use alias to hide their activities online. > Since foss-nepal is a community and one day or other we might have to get in > touch in person, i've found the aliased version creating real confusion > while doing so.

Wouldn't contacting them in private/off-list be done if any real name is required for the purpose of delegating tasks, organizing events etc. albeit adding a little bit of overhead to the project? > Jus my +1, please dont take this seriously. Ofcourse Jwalanta, taking this seriously is inconceivable.
