DetailsI logged in to AUR4 with my existing username from AUR3, "dx", and when trying to add a ssh key to my account settings, I got the following error:
> The username is invalid. > It must be between 3 and 16 characters long > Start and end with a letter or number > Can contain only one period, underscore or hyphen. I didn't touch that field, but it's part of the form. |

Interesting. We have been rejecting user names with length <3 since ~2007. I just checked the database and you seem to be the only remaining user with such a short user name. Would it be possible (and acceptable) for you to chose an alternate name that complies with our new guidelines?

Sorry for the lack of response, couldn't decide what to do. I just went ahead and renamed myself to "dequis". Not really happy to have to change this, but, whatever.
