I would like you to dare to change your password!! <grin!> 

The invitation message when you join a list picks a "strong" password 
that is indeed strong but hard to remember. We are not talking about 
your bank account here, so an easy-to-remember password is OK from a 
security perspective.

For our mailing lists, go to one of:

http://wedgeblade.net/mailman/listinfo/oe_wedgeblade.net
http://wedgeblade.net/mailman/listinfo/dialogue_wedgeblade.net
http://wedgeblade.net/mailman/listinfo/springboard_wedgeblade.net

and enter your email at the very bottom of the page, and click
"unsubscribe or edit options"

then enter the password you were sent. This will take you to a screen 
with a lot of ways to control your subscription. On the lower right 
you will see a way to change your password.

The only thing you need a password for as far as the mailing lists go 
is to manage your account (e.g. unsubscribe). You don't need it to 
actually use the list. For the www.wedgeblade.net you need a password 
to upload content, but not to browse the site.

Unfortunately all three mailing lists and wedgeblade.net wiki have 
independent passwords. Of course you can change them to make them all 
the same.

Happy to do it. I set up the springboard mailing list and Gordon and 
Jack are running it. Harry Wainwright does most of the work of 
running oe and dialogue.
