Description

Hi there

I reset my password via my edit/cvs tab in my account settings

export CVSROOT=:pserver:cvsusername@cvs.drupal.org:/cvs/drupal-contrib

and then

"cvs login"

and it still tells me password does not work, it has been about 10 minutes now, webchick says it might require time to sync, but has not happened

Logging in to :pserver:dgtlmoon@cvs.drupal.org:2401/cvs/drupal-contrib
CVS password:

Yeah, you need to wait the embarrasing amount of 20 minutes...

Hey take it easy killes,

on the form when you submit it says "Your password has been reset"

it does not say "Your password will be reset in around 30 minutes"

you might like to rectify this

Something needs to change here, i think it needs to read something different like

"Please allow up to 30 minutes for our architecture to catchup" ?

I don't know which code to patch, but I thought that would be a better wording...

function cvs_user_edit_form_submit()

if you add text like this, it needs to be site-specific (via a setting or theme function or something), since the 20 minutes is determined by external factors that vary from site to site.

Bump. Please update this. I changed my password about 100 times because there is no mention of a delay, and it made me think that the system was broken!
