Comment (by zooey):

 Centinel, jprostko: I'm impressed :-)

 Once you've ironed out that last subtle detail, I think we can copy your
 OTP implementation onto on of the VMs running on baron (either vmdev or
 vmweb).

 While thinking about the VMs, an "interesting" aspect crossed my mind:
 vmrepo hosts the git repositories, so a lot of people login via ssh in
 order to push any changesets upstream. The interesting part is that this
 includes admins, too. We can't ask every of these users for an OTP every
 time they push a changeset, so maybe we should limit the OTP requirement
 to the invocation of sudo? What do you think? Would it maybe even make
 sense to implement that scheme generally, i.e. only every require OTP for
 sudo?
