Hey.
Maybe someone will have an idea on this. We're looking at possibly deploying ES in the school I work for. It will be primarily used by the students to teach them how social networks behave, and to give them a place to exchange their thoughts and ideas with each other, and it will only be available internally.
However... Joomla has a limitation where you have to supply an email address when creating an account. None of our students have a school email account. So when they try to register, the system won't process their details as they cannot put an email account in.
Anyone got any ideas how to get around this? I can understand the logistics in everyday publicly available websites why Joomla is written like this, but in a school environment, it's potentially squashing my plans to roll this out.
