Hi all,

As I could not remember my password for the fiji update site, I reset my
password for the fiji wiki. Apparently that does not work (the updater
keeps showing the password dialog over and over), and I found a mail
from the beginning of the year that seems to confirm that the passwords
for the wiki and the updater are independent. Unfortunately the special
page indicated in that mail,

http://imagej.net/Special:ChangeUploadPassword

only leads me to an almost empty frame stating "Extension not yet
configured!", so I cannot change my password via that either.

Is there a way to reset the updater password, or could a kind maintainer
copy my wiki password over to the updater password (or generate a random
new one and send it to by mail if that is easier).

TIA
Adrian
