Thanks.  Fingers crossed.

I know you do. :-)

So, as I pointed out in the thread "OpenID yada yada yada" some time
ago, you can actually participate in bug triage using just email, very
similarly to with Debian.  All you need is an email account (etc) and
a GPG key, which you do already seem to have.  If you seriously want
to participate in this then I will be happy to do the small amount of
web interaction needed to get it this started.  Consider this a
workaround for the fact that it doesn't automatically recognize you
when you first send mail.

If I understand correctly, your position is that you don't want to
have or worry about a new site-specific account or credential.  This
would address that.
