Just want to give my stamp of approval on this one as well. Joni is on the Plugin Check core team now.

Apologies: This request got lost in a black hole in our kanban process.

Joni: I wasn't able to find a profile for you on plugins.mozilla.org.  Do you have an account there already, under another name?  (Admin access comes through having special bits turned on for you in your account entry.)

@cyliang, I tried to register but I can't get past the captcha. This is the page I'm supposed to register on, right? https://plugins.mozilla.org/en-us/register

Thanks.

Joni: I don't know much about how the application itself works: you'll probably need to consult with one of the other folks that have been able to get the account registration to work (like [e-mail] or [e-mail]) or with the developer ([e-mail]).  

I did try to register a test account and found that I had to use a different browser (Safari) in order to get the page to accept my captcha response.  (It did not work under Firefox 39.0, beta.)  You might want to try that first.

cyliang, thanks, I was able to register using Safari so you should see my profile now.

Joni: You should now be an plugins admin.  If you are currently logged in, you may need to log back out and log back in for the change to take effect.

If you find that you're still not "empowered" properly, please re-open this bug.
