It may seem obvious to us, but I have witnessed a couple of people confused by our login page. Typically first user experience: - Redirected to login page. See user/password, and a row of buttons at the bottom - Hmm, Google, that sounds good, I'll try that - Redirected to enter Google credentials - After entering Google credentials, you get an error: "Your authentication was successful but you are not authorized to access Orion. Contact administrator to create an Orion account." Huh? I already have an Orion account! What does this mean? I think one small thing we could do here is offer a link to the help page that tell you more (for example that you have to first connect your Orion account to the external Google/Yahoo/etc account before you can login that way). Towards that end I have started writing a page: http://wiki.eclipse.org/Orion/Documentation/User_Guide/Reference/Login_page
I think that error message could also be tweaked. How about: "Your authentication was successful, but that account is not associated with any Orion profile. External accounts can be added on your profile page after login."
Gosia, could you tweak the message due to John's suggestion and add the link?
I've changed a message and added a link to John's guide.
