Subject: Members Database


Hi !

Some of you might know it yet ...
The ATiC members database is online again !!!

In order to develop new features like adding
personal data for private meetings, inserting
pictures of your bike (and of you ?), etc. I 
decided to switch to a "real" SQL database with
a Web-Interface (some work for me, never heard
about SQL before :-) )

As a result in the future everyone has a private
password which is needed to modify the entered 
data. I also want to react against lots of mails
with "address changes" with that. 

Most of you should have received a mail with a
automatically assigned password today. Those
who didn't get the mail probably weren't subscribed
to the old ATIC memberlist with a correct email
address. I this case please contact me via
private email (Subj: Database) , give me atic# and new 
email and I will send you the password (and only this !)
within some days. Please accept that this can
be a huge task with some delays for me, I expect 
about 100 mails concerning that :-)

Another point is that I want to clean up the
database. This means, that *everyone* hast to change
his preassigned password until 30. July, otherwise
the account will be treated as dead and the atic#
will be deleted !

For now I hope everything is clear (seems to be a bit
chaotic these days ...) and hope that everything works.

P.S.: Special thanks for debugging help to Ramon !
