Centralizing logins across WordPress.org

Your WordPress.orgWordPress.org The community site where WordPress code is created and shared by the users. This is where you can download the source code for WordPress core, plugins and themes as well as the central location for community conversations and organization. https://wordpress.org/ account lets you do a lot of things: you can ask questions in the support forum, file a ticket on core trac, save favorite themes and plugins, update your public WordPress.org profile, and more (some of those links only work if you’re logged in). This is pretty nice, but all those different sites also mean having a lot of disparate login interfaces… So, in the spirit of providing a more unified authentication experience, we’ll soon be centralizing those logins into one place: login.wordpress.org.

The metaMeta Meta is a term that refers to the inside workings of a group. For us, this is the team that works on internal WordPress sites like WordCamp Central and Make WordPress. team has launched login.wordpress.org as a place where you can login today and, if everything looks good, I’ll be working over the next couple of weeks on redirecting logins across WordPress.org to this site. The theme is currently not much to look at, a placeholder of sort as most will only interact with the login form. It is, on the other hand, all open source, and tickets can be files against its own component.
