kev - can you reset my blog account? I tried to log in as "bear" but it says invalid username

Which blog?

the xmpp blog - or am I looking at the wrong one?

Which URL?

I have had accounts on a number of blogs on our infrastructure over the years.

http://blog.xmpp.org/ - that one?

yes

well, not knowing that there were multiple blog possibles I just said "blog"

I'm not entirely sure I have an account on that blog, I'll look now.

I figured you would 1) have an acct or 2) be able to get one being infra master dude ;)

What would you like to post, anyway? (Would it be best to let Nyco know first?)

Hah!

Ok, I've now created an account for myself, and massaged the DB to give me admin rights.

What did you need done, bear?

bear: the reason you can't login with your blog.xmpp.org account is that you don't have one.

I need to post to it about the GSoC and start working on some future blog posts

can you liase with Nÿco on those?

when needed sure

Made yourself an account?

no, I had thought there was already one - i'll do that in a minute

[14:55:04] <Kev> bear: the reason you can't login with your blog.xmpp.org account is that you don't have one.

At least, not under any search terms I'd think of looking.

it would be either "bear" or "MikeTaylor"

Yes, it's neither of those.

k - thanks

ok, registered

Ok, I've upgraded your account to a contributor state, see if that's enough, else I'll bump you up again.

Unless Nÿco happens to know offhand what the required level to write an article is?

but after the blog will change (with the new website)

?

I see that comments are not disabled on stage :( example : http://stage.xmpp.org/?p=650#comments

I'll start crafting the first post and see what road blocks I hit

thanks kev

Ta.
