By the way, in case anyone isn't aware of it (Mark Dickinson and I weren't
initially), it is _really easy_ to change your tracker id if you want to
do it yourself.  Just go in 'your details' and change your login name.
It'll change everywhere in the tracker, since roundup tracks accounts
by an internal number, not the login name.
