Good work Chris & Chris,

I've checked and I can still log into my existing Biopython wiki account
via OpenID (using Google), and that means I still have my wiki admin rights
:)

The wiki on open-bio.org, biosql.org and bioperl.org also worked fine (I
already had accounts there).

However, on BioJava.org and BioDas.org I don't think I had an old account,
which lead to a problem - I can valid my email via OpenID, but get stuck
here - there is no option to create a new account?

Presumably this will be faced by all new contributors.

Also BioLib's wiki is AWOL, http://biolib.open-bio.org/wiki/Main_Page -
probably completely unrelated.
