hmmm i read somewhere, that under the privacy act, it is illegal to force people to enter personal details. unless it's for payments such as credit card etc..

and i'm sure a lot of users would like to keep somethings to themselves..

not sure exactly, but if u look at the file registration.php the email and password fields are mandatory, so maybe you could find the part that makes it mandatory and add that code to the names section too..
