[SAC] [OSGeo] #1827: Update mantra request instructions

#1827: Update mantra request instructions
---------------------------+--------------------

Priority: normal | Milestone:
Component: Systems Admin | Keywords: mantra
---------------------------+--------------------
On the new user page: https://www.osgeo.org/cgi-bin/ldap_create_user.py
we explain the mantra can be obtained from the admins.

Due to numerous requests stating "I need a mantra" which are difficult to
verify, I propose to update the `ldap_create_user.py` page with this
simple instruction:

{{{

In order to verify your request, we will need to know a couple of details:
* Why you need to create a new OSGeo User?
* What are your affiliations? For example, university, company, pubic
profile on any of social sites like SourceForge, Twitter, GitHub,
BitBucket, or your posts archived in any of the OSGeo mailing lsits
(https://lists.osgeo.org), etc.
}}}

Comment (by rouault):

I suggest the following amendments to mloskot's proposal
{{{
In order to verify your request, we will need to know a couple of details
so as to build "trust":
* Why do you need to create a new OSGeo User?
* If it is to report a bug, for example, mention which project is affected
and describe very briefly what the issue is (you'll be able to file a full
report in the ticket, once you are granted a OSGeo User)
* Or alternatively, please display one public affiliation. For example,
university, company, pubic profile on any of social sites like
SourceForge, Twitter, GitHub, BitBucket, or your posts archived in any of
the OSGeo mailing lsits (https://lists.osgeo.org), etc.
}}}

Even: sounds good to me. Up for a patch ? Last time it was Anita sending a
patch.
You can also file a pull for this file https://git.osgeo.org/gogs/sac/web-
cgi-bin/src/master/NEEDMANTRA.html (you need to sign in to be able to see
it)

I'm logged in gogs and https://git.osgeo.org/gogs/sac/web-cgi-
bin/src/master/NEEDMANTRA.html is a 404 for me. I also feel like mloskot
that this situation is getting ridiculous.

Also 404s for me. Maybe missing rights? On https://git.osgeo.org/gogs/sac,
I can only see TracLDAPEmailResolverPlugin and gogs-service.

Thanks Even, deployed: https://www.osgeo.org/cgi-bin/ldap_create_user.py

Anita, in case you want to suggest further changes, we learned that after
forking you'll also need to add someone in the Owners team as a
collaborator, to give access to your branch (but a simple patch attached
to trac is still accepted, and probably easier)

Thanks, I'm away from my home PC, so I'll just mention it here: There's a
typo in "mailing lsits". Otherwise, it looks fine to me.
