I was actually talking about the Fedora Account System 2 session :)  
That sounds very much like the lowering the barriers session from last 
year (which, really, we should have every FUDCon and I'm quite glad to 
see you doing it).  Just in case things go for worst and I can't make it 
to yours and you can't make it to the FAS session.  Take a look at this:

https://publictest3.fedoraproject.org/fas/

Its currently still in test so feel free to make up a user, it will have 
no barring on your actual user and you can just come up with whatever 
you want.  There is a CLA process in there that I think you'll find MUCH 
easier then the current method.  There's also some bits for signing a 
clickthrough CLA though I'm not sure how far along those bits are.  Let 
me know what you think.
