Contributors,

the GNOME Infrastructure is making available a new web based tool that will
help you resetting your account password in case it was lost. As many of
you know, the current way of updating your password was running a command
on your terminal making sure your SSH key was up-to-date with the one we
have on our systems. That was creating a barrier to contributors which
aren't comfortable using a terminal, SSH or other developer
oriented toolings. The new solution will ease the process and remove the
need of utilizing a console and/or owning an SSH key.

You can access the new tool at:

https://password.gnome.org

Documentation [1] has been updated to reflect this change as well. For any
issue with the service, please open an issue at [2].

Thanks!

P.S the former password reset method (`ssh -l username account.gnome.org`)
has been removed/deprecated
