How to change or renew the OSM password ?

1

Is it possible to change an OSM password and if how ? The Wiki gives no explanation. Or is the method just forget yours and ask for a renewal ? Greetz

Log in at osm.org, go to your settings (first click on your username on top of the page), type in a new password (twice) and hit the "save" button at bottom of the page.

I have created a feature request that the fields be named more intuitively at https://trac.openstreetmap.org/ticket/4778
