I just ran the latest update and it now seems to enforce stronger
passwords by default sending the new user a link to change their
password,

I am guessing this then also stops them setting something weak but any
other plug-ins that complement this would be useful

Once we are up and running perhaps an article on setting / using
strong passwords would be a good idea,  helpful generally not just for
the website.
