Your user name in griffin
Your user name will be used throughout griffin as your identity. Please choose a non-offensive and reasonably short name. There is no rule other than this.
If you prefer anonymity
Anonymity can become an issue when you like to engage in forum discussions, but you do not like to be identified by other people, e.g. your classmates if you are using my teaching related web sites.
I understand that anonymity can be your preference. If this is the case for you, then I recommend you to do the following. Create a user name (like "slug1973") that has nothing to do with you.

If you use a pseudonym and a private email address, then you must notify me who you are. If you do not, then your account may be disabled.
Public or private
The web server at Griffin uses somewhat sophisticated access control mechanism. Certain web pages can be completely public (like certain teaching related pages) while some can be completely private, hidden from the general public. Some can be made accessible only to a few selected users.
The forum site is an important component of Griffin. At the time of this writing (Jan 2013), I am beginning to employ a more private setting for the forum. While questions can be listed by any one, only registered users can access questions.
