Please send it only once, I do not care to which address. But here are some
suggestions for improvement:
1) Please use a consistent subject for these mails:
February: Fedora Project Password Reset Request
December(1): FAS Password Change Request
December(2): FAS Password
2) The mail from 2009-02-09 only said, that the password will expire. It was
not mentioned that also further action will occur, e.g. afaik the contents of
fedorapeople.org where moved. E.g. I only changed my password because I had to
submit a security update, but otherwise I would not have cared for an expired
password, because of little available time for Fedora work right now.
Nevertheless I would have cared about moved fedorapeople.org contents or
missing CVS notifications.
3) A two week deadline is imho too short. It may be especially bad if the
fedorapeople.org contents are really moved and someone who is on vacation
hosts a shared SCM there or other contents of wide interest.

Till
