RE: https://issues.apache.org/ooo/ is now live - Regression Check
It will be useful for folks who already have issues on the OpenOffice.org bugzilla to go through the password reset. I recommend using your @openoffice.org ID and the password you have already on openoffice.org for simple continuity.
Once you log in with your "new" password, use the "My Bugs" link to see if you recognize everything that turns up, and any special cases that you know of have been handled properly.
The assignment and workflow of bugs will probably change, and I don't know if the previous processing arrangement has been preserved. Others will want to check that and let us know.

MY EXPERIENCE
Having learned the other day that my "orcmid" User ID on parts of the OpenOffice.org site is actually an orcmid@openoffice.org ID, I did the password reset ceremony with that e-mail address as "Login."
I received the email "token", and it worked to allow me to reset the password (back to its original value, since it still works elsewhere, including on openoffice.org itself, though my wiki account is clearly not tied to @openoffice.org).
After logging in, I was able to use the "My Bugs" link to find all three of my ancient bug reports. Now the "Reported: " time stamp not only shows orcmid as reporter, it also has it be a link (with mailto:orcmid@openoffice.org). The issue numbers are unchanged too.
I'm sure there are more interesting cases to verify, especially ones with attachments and ones that are pinged from commit messages.
But as a point-test, it looks like there is more working than not.
And it is relatively painless to move over.

Thank you thank you thank you. I see a bug of mine from 2006 is still sitting there [;<).
Now let's see if I can reset my password using my unexpected @openoffice.org id.

Enjoy.
Any problems, please create an infrastructure Jira issue against the
Bugzilla component.

This might the beginning of a new multiplication of passwords for every
OpenOffice.org service/website that is ported to the new infrastructure,
while so far we were enjoying the benefits of a (mostly) Single-Sign-On
solution.
I realize that in the case of BugZilla it was probably impossible to do
it differently, but if at all possible other migrated services should
try and use the same users/passwords database as the new BugZilla.
Regards,
Andrea.

I used the same password again because I didn't want to have more than one associated with orcmid@openoffice.org.
I generate unique passwords for all accounts. In this case it was a simplification to preserve "single-sign-on" between the openoffice.org site and the bugzilla here. And whatever else it accomplished, the issues that I had previously filed are now again "hot" with links in the places where "orcmid" appears.
Since the password is still not useful except where I have orcmid@openoffice.org on an account, I am not too worried that I have expanded my personal attack surface in any significant way.

I don't see why using the same password would be any benefit. In fact
that's contradictory to anything that's usually said about choosing
passwords. The new Bugzilla also isn't coupled to the OOo user database
anymore, so there's really no need to have identical passwords.
However, while currently the @openoffice.org mail forwarder still exists
that may change in future, so setting up a different mail address with
BZ probably needs to be done anyway at some point.
