To *create* an account, or to *validate* an account? The command to
validate an account is, IIRC, "validate." It can only be run by members
of the 'porters' group, again IIRC.

The procedure outlined by Joe in resp:0 dates from an era when there
were lots of active conferences and folks were concerned about topic
overlap. A reqest dialog might go like this -
REQUESTER: I'd like to have a conference where we talk about ABC.
RANDOM RESPONDENT: There's already an XYZ conference where they
talk about that. It's pretty active.
REQUESTER: Oh, ok, never mind then, I'll go to conference XYZ.
Nowadays it's difficult to imagine that dialog taking place.
I'd favor simplifying the process.
Now, does anybody want a new conference?
