digitalmars.D - D Lang Web Site (and Wiki): How many accounts must one have?

Between bugs, code.lang.org, etc.,  I must have multiple log-in
accounts and i've run out of e-mail addresses.  Can't there be a
single account for dlang.org?

Or maybe I'm doing something wrong?

Thanks.

Best regards,

The systems run on different machines and are managed by 
different people. Short of convincing the maintainers of the 
different services to add OpenID support, there is not much you 
can do to avoid having separate accounts.

However, it shouldn't be a problem to just use the same email 
address for all of them. Why would it be for you?

Best,
David

Well, I started with a wiki editing account which works fine.  Then,
when I tried to file a bug bugzilla wouldn't let me in so I tried to
start a new account but it wouldn't let me use my usual e-mail so I
used an alternate one.

Next I wanted to get into code.lang.org and same thing: the other two
logins won't work.

All three use an e-mail or user name, but none can be the same apparently.

This is not the case. Maybe you just had accounts at the other 
sites already?

Of course, you could also be hitting some strange bug. In that 
case, the best thing to do would be to contact the respective 
admins (issues.dlang.org: Brad Roberts, code.dlang.org: Sönke 
Ludwig) to try and figure out what is going on.

Best,
David

Thanks for the contact info, David.
