[08:09:03] <sd0001>	 not sure if this is the right channel, but I registered a developer account "twinkle-i18n-bot" for use with Gerrit. It's been more than a day. I'm still not able to sign into it (getting "Authentication failed" on Gerrit).
[08:31:07] <apergos>	 sd0001: did you go through the form at https://idm.wikimedia.org/signup/ ?  what happened after that? 
[08:32:03] <sd0001>	 yes
[08:32:16] <sd0001>	 i got an email for account activation, and the activation was successful
[08:32:39] <sd0001>	 it said it might take some time before I'm able to login to the account
[08:32:51] <sd0001>	 just curious what that "some time" is
[08:46:27] <apergos>	 sd0001: I think you will want to ask someone from the infrastructure foundations team. as I look at our docs, it doesn't seem like there should be a long delay. their channel is  #wikimedia-sre-foundations   
[08:47:17] <sd0001>	 apergos: thanks for the pointer
[08:47:26] <apergos>	 good luck!
