[Lincs] Test Web site

[iain Baker]

we only have two sign in's... the website itself (the blog) and the
forum, and there is no reason the username and password cant be the
same for both (mine is!)

i am aware that there are circumstances when it is not feasable but
also the 'remember me' or 'log me in automatically' function is
designed just for that problem.

however it is a good point, and obviously the number of
usernames/passwords will be kept to as few as possible
