I don't believe there has been any migration affecting accounts. In
addition my account is unaffected and still working. I would note that
if you are trying to use google openid to login to thedatahub and used
it to login to ckan.net it won't work because (annoyingly) google
generate different 'openid' urls for you for different sites. Hence if
you use google openid to login to thedatahub you will end up with a
new account vis a vis your one on ckan.net. This obviously won't
happen with normal login or use of another openid provider.
