    Dear Maintainer,

    When spontaneously deciding to volunteer for a task, it is not possible to be properly registered and to sign up for the task on the next day.

    I had this scenario when I spontaneously decided to be a breakfast hero. Additionally when I was spontaneously a 'badge desk hero', I could not register while sitting there: that task is only possible after being trained. However, I was trained on the spot, and my trainer wrote on IRC a request to allow me to register. That did not happen during my shift (it was already late, so that was to be expected), and the next day I still could not register.

    Just minor issues...

    Thanks for a wonderful DebCamp/DebConf 25!
