I don't think that information is available to the app, at least at
present... when you log in, it is empowered to ask the community login
DB "is this combination of a username and a password valid?" but all
it gets back is "yes" or "no".

If you click on the patch title on that page, it takes you to patch details page, where the real author name seems to be available to the app.

https://commitfest.postgresql.org/action/patch_view?id=393



That's because there is a field to set the author's name. See
<https://commitfest.postgresql.org/action/patch_form?commitfest=7>

At the same time, I should have though allowing the Commitfest app access to the user's actual name would be acceptable.
