Folks,
Yes, this would be fine. The point is (for now) we can't expect people to
first request Shawn, Howard or I to create them an LDAP userid manually before
they can even report a small issue they would like to see fixed.
Once it is easy for folks to signed up at www.osgeo.org as a new user and get
an unpriveledged LDAP account, we can use those for authentication and remove
the dummy account.
We really need the new member / new user creation capability!
Best regards,
