Yes, remembering short passwords is easier. But nowadays you might have like 400 passwords, and they should all be different (or you do not manage them by yourselve (alone)).LastPass is one of the tools out there that can handle that for you, among others.I now use LastPass for several years, it's free, I believe it's safe (safer then 123passw everywhere) and it never let me down.Edo2015-11-13 11:16 GMT+01:00 James Alexander <jalexander@wikimedia.org>:_______________________________________________On Fri, Nov 13, 2015 at 1:23 AM, Lodewijk <lodewijk@effeietsanders.org> wrote:Were only the admin passwords compromised, or also the passwords of the list members (who can set a password to view the membership etc)?LodewijkAll passwords were reset, including list member passwords. Because list member passwords can go through a "retrieve password" + they get periodic reminders automatically mass emails about those resets were not sent out however. (I believe we may be adding a note in the auto reminder about how they were reset... but not entirely sure, I will leave that for ops)James AlexanderManagerTrust & SafetyWikimedia Foundation(415) 839-6885 x6716 @jamesofur
