[SAC] OSGeo Id creation disabled

[Frank Warmerdam]

Folks,

I'm willing to update the LDAP account creation to require email
validation.  That is, I'll send out an email and they have to follow
the link in the email to confirm before the account is actually
created.

Is there a SAC ticket on this?  I should be able to do it today or tomorrow.

I'll likely also try and put in place self-service password reset
using a similar mechanism.

Best regards,
Frank
