It is misleading to let new committers "contact <clusteradm@FreeBSD.org> to obtain one" instead of following the instructions on the AboutWiki page, registering on the Wiki login page, and contacting clusteradm@ if there is trouble.

Adding Michael Dexter, as he's doing a major rewrite of the Committers Guide and can integrate this bit into his list of changes. Plus, he could use a bit more practice committing changes from Bugzilla. ;-)
Created attachment 186970 [details] Clarified the Committer's Guide section on FreeBSD Wiki Account by linking to AboutWiki page Realised I should say obtain instead of get like the original text as it does sound better. Also, I forgot to add .txt to the last file name.
(In reply to Benedict Reuschling from comment #2) Right on! I'm sure Michael will be happy to hear I'm helping out. He really encouraged me to get involved at BSDCan as did you and many others. =D
(In reply to Benedict Reuschling from comment #2) Thank you! Note that I have this patch reviewed and approved here: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D12567. Am I still committing this?
Ah, I wasn't aware that Allan approved it already. Sure, go ahead with the commit yourself. Sorry for the noise. ;-)
