Hi Lene,

Short story: see below to reset your password:
https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Osgeo_Userid_Help

Long story: we use osgeo-user id's (and ldap for it) because then you do 
not need to remember even more passwords :-)
We could have easier QGIS password infrastructure but in my view we 
shouldn't want this: it is better if we unite as geoFOSS community in 
both infrastructure and use of standards.

Besides this, you need some determination to create an issue anyway as 
it is best if the issuer keeps monitoring the issue and reacts on 
questions from devs...

Let me know if you have a problem resetting your password (though I 
cannot reset it for you either...), then we figure out another way to 
issue your problem.
