[Chandler-dev] Re: [Proposal] [Bug 11739] Ask for email address of users who download the desktop or sign up for an account

[Sheila Mooney]

I thought that we were going to ask if we could use their email  
address to contact them with user questions when they sign up for a  
hub account? I didn't think it was on download of the desktop but  
perhaps I am forgetting the details of what we talked about. When they  
sign up for a hub account we already have the email address and it  
would simply be a matter of them opting out of giving us permission to  
contact them.
