ssh shell access

Once your user id is setup (see
http://people.apache.org/committer-index.html) you'll get a
long email which has this fragment:

"Your password, once set, will grant you shell access to people.apache.org
and svn access to https://svn.apache.org/.  You may in the future change it
by running 'ssh <user>@people.apache.org <ra...@people.apache.org>' and
then 'passwd', or over the
Web at <https://svn.apache.org/change-password> or <https://id.apache.org/
>."

However, after setting the password, this ssh command fails with
"Permission denied (publickey)."
because they've switched to using public keys instead of passwords as noted
at:
https://blogs.apache.org/infra/entry/committer_shell_access_to_people

If you go to https://id.apache.org/ and upload your public key, the ssh
should work (give it a
few minutes to percolate through their systems).
