Well, the new user form did tell you your account would have this
-guest suffix.

  Did you read the announcement[1]?  Did you read the Alioth homepage?
If you're not a Debian developer, you're a guest.  Your account is not
crippled in any way, though.  This is just a measure to avoid
namespace conflicts.

  Yes.  Become a Debian developer with the login 'harri', and this
account will automagically be injected into Alioth.
