[WG: Sakai QA] Sakai QA] Request for admin access to QA Server

[Sean DeMonner]

Brian,

The list of Sakai QA servers for various versions may be viewed here:

	http://confluence.sakaiproject.org/display/QA/Test+Instances

Typically, the admin account for a QA server has its pw set to either the OOTB default (i.e. same as the account name) or to the plural form of the creature named on this page:

Hope that helps :-)

SMD.
