Managing accounts/passwords for the Fineract project
Hey all,
I asked on the Apache comdev list about other ideas for how to manage
passwords and accounts:
https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/62bfb3a74484312afb4f9eb2387a6f58ea36e20a171d88fdb785378c@%3Cdev.community.apache.org%3E
Ideas included:
* using an svn private area
* using an svn private area and encrypting the password with the keys
of the PMC members
* using LastPass (and paying 48$ for it)
* using https://www.passwordstore.org/
* asking one of the password managers for freebies
We are only talking about one account with low value at this point.
And I don't think most of our committers know how to use svn (or are
particularly motivated to learn). Given those facts, I recommend we
continue to use our confluence private area for now.
If anyone else has ideas or preferences, I welcome them.
Best Regards,
Myrle

Hi Myrle,
Thanks for looking it to this.
Bitwarden would have been perfect but one thing I noticed is that the free
offer has the following limitations
FreeFor testing or personal users to share with 1 other user.• Limited to 2
users (including you)• Limited to 2 collections
I second the idea of keeping it in the private area for now. I will
continue to look out for ways to securely share the password

Hi Myrle,
... there is also Bitwarden (https://bitwarden.com/) which:
- is open source
- available as a commercial offer or for self hosting (they have Docker
images as far as I remember)
- available for pretty much any platform (mobile, desktop, browser, cli)
- as far as I'm aware it should be at least on par feature wise with
Last Pass and similar services
- I think it had some good reviews
Cheers,
Aleks
