sPHENIX is a new detector at RHIC.

    Hi folks,
    
    this was announced previously, local accounts for indico are being
    phased out. The first step is to disable the creation of new local
    accounts next Tuesday. Local accounts will be disabled in June.
    
    sdcc showed statistics of the current account usage and the vast
    majority still uses local accounts. Please take the time to move to
    a federated login which is explained in the news section of the
    banner which has been displayed on indico for a while now. 
    
    local and federated authentication co-exist until local accounts are
    disabled (means after you set up your federated access you can still
    use the local login)
    
    Chris
