I think that's a good idea. I think maybe not all volunteers realize the value of identification and just are afraid of getting too much mail or spam or losing privacy. I felt that way at the beginning, and so did someone else on the list, I don't remember who. It was after some discussion here that I realized why identification was necessary and I changed my profile. Perhaps in the next newsletter that goes out to everyone, or somewhere in the instructions that go out to volunteers strong encouragement to allow identification and an explanation of the need for it can be given.
