<h2>Authorizing A New Account</h2>
<p>Someone from the list below sends a PGP-signed email to
admins@FreeBSD.org, the person assigned as the mentor to the new
committer, and copied to core@FreeBSD.org confirming the approval of
the new account. This email should include a link to this document
so the mentor/mentee know what is expected of them.</p>
<p>New account approvals are only valid from these PGP entities:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>core-secretary</p></li>
<li><p>portmgr</p></li>
<li><p>nik</p></li>
</ul>
<p><i>NOTE: New account requests from anyone other than these
entities or requests signed with PGP keys other than from these
entities will not be acted upon. No exceptions.</i></p>
<h2>Information Needed From New Committer</h2>
<p>The person assigned as the new committers' mentor needs to collect
and send the following information to admins@FreeBSD.org:</p>
<ul>
<li><p><tt>master.passwd</tt> line containing preferred username,
shell, and GECOS info (no password is needed)</p></li>
<li><p>ssh V2 public key (<strong>version 2 ONLY</strong>)</p></li>
<li><p>PGP key for new committer (used for account recovery or other
needs that require positive identification of the
committer)</p></li>
</ul>
<h2>admins@FreeBSD.org Creates New Account</h2>
<p>admins@FreeBSD.org creates the new account with the above
information on the FreeBSD.org cluster and notifies the mentor and
the new committer.</p>
<h2>Mentor Activates New Committer's Commit Bit</h2>
<p>After the new committer confirms that their account works, the mentor
activates the new committer's commit bit and guides them through the
rest of the initial process.</p>
