 Quoting https://help.torproject.org/tsa/doc/accounts/:

 > Most of the time when people want access to a specific host, what they
 really want is getting added to a particular group

 does "people" need to know how ldap works or how the different
 services/machines are configured to know which "group" they want to be
 added to?
 i suspect no

 > If you want to get added to some unix group, you will have to find an
 existing member of that group.

 awesome explanation, what if a new group is needed?

 > They should then request on trac –

 ok, the person in the group, not the person that "want" the "access".

 > ideally in a PGP signed message (as above in the new account creation
 section) – that you be added to their group.

 it seems this means that the *OpenPGP*-signed messaged should be in the
 trac ticket, but gives confusion to whether it should be a email, and
 whether it should be PGP-signed.

 And i could not find the component where to include this ticket.
