Done.
BTW, there are still 20175 user accounts on OSGeo LDAP and I'd guess
that approx. 95 % are dummy/spam accounts. By removing accouns ins
small chunks of 5 to 20 I doubt that we'll be able to silence this
spamming within a reasonable time frame.
Instead I'd recommend to announce setting random passwords onto *all*
OSGeo LDAP accounts - except those whose owners explicitly ask for an
exception. And those who don't within 9 months will get removed
entirely.
Just an idea, feel free to object - but, those who do, please suggest a
viable alternative, don't just let others suffer from your principles.
Cheers,
Martin.
