That is part of the problem, never got a reply that the signature of
the CLA was alright. Even though I sent it twice. Now since the purge
of the wiki, I have to re-create an account, and do all the process

through which I've had to jump to even get to the point to sign the
CLA... I don't mind the reading, but the recursive referencing in the
wiki is a bit excessive (IMO) feels like there's no "to the point"
link, and right now I've got like 5 or 6 tabs in Firefox pointing to
different documents referenced as steps to become a contributor from
the main directions page to gain Edit privileges to the wiki... looks
like a lot (again, I don't mind the reading, is just that seems much
more complicated than it actually is, especially for new users [both
to Fedora and Wiki systems]), just a thought for devising simpler
ways (though, now that I think of it, it may as well remain that way
to discourage those who wouldn't compromise).
I don't think that keeping it deliberating confusing is a good thing.
If we have usability issues with the wiki we need to fix that. The
problem of ensuring that the system is not compromised should be
satisifed by other means. The longer term goal is to make the CLA a
click through process.
Re-apply and follow the instructions at
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/AccountSystem/CLAHowTo
which is supposed to be the "to the point" link. After you get edit
access post to fedora-websites list and we can work out where we need
to simplify it.

I'm currently in the process of doing so... I take it that (according to
the instructions) the Wiki account and the Fedora Accounts account are
different from one another? 'Cause I feel kind of lost at this point in
the instructions where I should apply for a Fedora account and then sign
the the CLA (got there *after* I created a wiki account, so I take it
they're different)
