only provides details of those MVPs that want to share their
information publicly.
Yes, that's right.
The MVP programme is far from perfect. But in my experience, most
genuine MVPs are willing - and indeed, greatly desire - to have their
details openly published.

I wish that were so. However, when I scanned through recent
contributions to this newsgroup, I quickly found one from a regular
contributor who describes himself as "MS-MVP [Mail]".
Based upon the quality of his contributions, I have little doubt that
the gentleman is an MVP. However, a search against his name at
https://mvp.support.microsoft.com/communities/mvp.aspx reports "No
results were found for your search criteria".
Surely, it should be possible to check a name against the definitive
list of MVPs (even if an individual MVP does not want to disclose his
biographical or other details). Furthermore, I would have no objection
to the use of a pseudonym, if an MVP has a genuine reason for anonymity.
Incidentally, I use Windows Live Mail as my Newsreader client program.
WLMail includes some Community Features, which allow for a special icon
to appear against contributions by MVPs. However, very few postings bear
the icon.
Would that be me, Bob? MS gives us only two choices. Remain anonymous, or
have all your personal info made public. I have expressed my opinion in
the past to MS that, IMO there should be an MS certified list of MVPs
that the public can see. IOW, a list of names of all MVPs without
revealing personal info if they do not want it published. Right now, it's
all or nothing.
I don't want to sound offensive, but I don't really want to share all the
information in my personal profile with the rest of the world. It is
really no ones business. But I /do/ want the public to be assured that I
am not an impostor.
