1 ) @Alessandro: sorry for bothering you but I have no clue when the one submitting the petition is an individual or a company (unless they add something). Is there any way to do it.

- Duplicates entries: I was catching the duplicate ones but unless I am
totally sure it is a mistake (for example, there was a case where there was the same name one after another) I don't think we should change the others. E.g Alexander Ross is a really common name as well as other duplicates. So I am only deleting the ones I am 100% sure it is a mistake.
OK. I was just wondering whether we can somehow improve duplication detection. The ambiguity is part of the reason why I have not done anything either.
Maybe it would be a good idea to start to store the emails internally from now on. And I will check the last requests to try to find any company and I will contact them.
The list has archives. So as long as the mail goes through the list, it is stored. :-)
Thanks, Ana.
Cheers,
Hi,
@Otto: I add you in this email because we have a question for you...
Matthias suggested (I was checking everything with him as I am starting so I am not really so good with these issues and I am still really far away to have a good computer knowledge) that maybe it would be a good idea to have something similar for our PDF signatures request as what Otto is doing with the support (@Otto: something that checks automatically the emails, if they are already in the system).
Maybe once Otto explains it we could use the same system for the PDFsign (and in that case, @Heiki: would you mind be in charge of it? I will continue updating the list and the names but it would be nice if someone is also checking it).
Best,
Ana
