Someone emailed the python.org webmaster alias saying they were unable sign up for discuss.python.org and wanted to report it / ask for help. Is there a way to do this without actually being signed in? If so, could it maybe go somewhere on the board that those with difficulties can find?
There isn’t any specific side channel beyond perhaps python-dev?
Otherwise I’m a bit surprised they are having issues as no one has ever reported such a problem, especially since we have multiple ways to log in (e.g. GitHub). Unless their account has been blocked for CoC reasons, in which case it’s expected. 
yeah, details were not supplied…
