FYI, I didn't see an earlier version on the list nor on the newsgroup
(via gmane gateway).

Well, not being shy, I created an account for myself on central and
logged in, then opened a browser window to cabal.  On cabal I appear
to be logged in (but I cannot log in) and I appear to have a user
page, a user talk page, etc.  But trying to view the user talk page,
I get this:

Permission error
The action you have requested is limited to users in one of the groups staff, cabal.

If I use a shared user database, will someone (a sysop or bureaucrat)
have to do user registrations for the users?  Currently, most of my
users do this for themselves.
