Hi! In case you are not on the ietf-announce, please take heed of the following - especially if you plan to participate in IETF 123. Note the change is now in effect.
spt > Begin forwarded message: > > From: Robert Sparks <[email protected]> > Subject: Action required: Update to IETF Datatracker password requirements > starting 8 July > Date: July 1, 2025 at 15:59:12 EDT > To: [email protected] > Reply-To: Tools Team Discussion <[email protected]> > > Beginning with a Datatracker update scheduled for 8 July, after the I-D > submission deadline for IETF 123 Madrid has passed, passwords for the IETF > Datatracker will be required to have at least 12 characters and be > sufficiently complex.[1] > You should verify your password meets the new requirements using the “New > password” field on the change password form after logging in: > https://datatracker.ietf.org/accounts/password/ > On that form, a complexity bar and text below the new password field will > provide guidance. When the bar is green, the password will be accepted. If > your current password does not meet the requirements, please go through the > password change process to set a new one that does meet them.
