Never mind, the password reset worked in the end.

I'd still like to set up an Ojibwe team though.  A followup thought on
that - it might be best to set it up as "oj_CA" since there are two
writing systems in use by speakers of the language, Latin script
(common in the US) and Canadian syllabics (common in Canada).  Using
the region codes would be an easy, if imperfect, way of dealing with
this issue.  Better would be to support BCP-47 language tags like
oj-Cans and oj-Latn but I suppose that would take some serious work.

Thanks!
