IT HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION THAT THE USERNAMES FOR BIDS ON EBAY ARE NOT THE FULL USERNAME AS IT USED TO BE. THEY ARE A SHORTENED VERSION OF ONES USERNAME. I BELIEVE THAT EBAY IS DOING THIS FOR SECURITY REASONS. IN OTHER WORDS YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHO IS BIDDING PLUS YOU WILL NOT KNOW IF THEY ARE MEMBERS OF SRP OR NOT.

THE QUESTION IS DO WE NEED THE LIST OF EBAY USERS FROM SRP?

I knew about the above but just didn't relate the two.....
I probably know the answer but just wanted your opinion.
