+
+There's been a discussion at the very beginning about that, and the
+choice had been made that: &quot;classic&quot; users would be able to reset
+their password directly, however contributors with commit access would
+need a manual reset from a sysadmin (another point of view was that
+it's a boring, unnecessary blocking task, but no one could provide a
+working solution satisfying both sides at the time).
+
+I'll update the error message to &quot;Privileged accounts may not recover
+passwords via this mechanism: please get in touch with a member of
+sysadmin team (#mageia-sysadm on IRC).&quot;. That's just a little bit more
+informative but it could certainly be better.
+
+So, as to get your password reset, you'd need a direct contact from a
+sysadmin here or on IRC. Anyone?
