Great! I'll test with a new applicant from zero and send comments. >The complexity is due to the fact you can be a member but then have to >re-apply.

I'll take a stab at some of it, but we can define that as we go along. Any active member of an SPI affiliated project for starters, and any active member of any large free software development project. Other suggestions? CHANGES: http://nm.spi-inc.org/newnm.php Thank you for your interest in applying for membership to Software in the Public Institute, Inc. To apply for membership, please enter the information requested below. Please do not choose a sensitive password since it will be stored in plain text and transmitted by e-mail. New Member Application SPI membership application submitted successfully on 2001-07-25. Your application ID is 90. <p> You should receive a confirmation email at the email address that you specified in the application. Please reply to this mail to confirm your application for membership. Once this mail is received by SPI, your application for non-contributing SPI membership is accepted. <p> ...add return to application page and SPI homepage links. - is there a 'DELETE APPLICANT' button somewhere? - nils lohner2 has only a non-contrib membership, but has an expiration date of 2002-07-25... non-contribs should have 'never' as expiration. - on the nmstatus page, there are checkboxes for application manager and contrib member. I can select them and hit 'update' but it doesn't change anything. - is it possible tp have an NC application date and a contrib application date, and then also the email check confirm date and the contrib acceptance date? Also, why is this page titled 'last application details' ? Wouldn't 'application details' make more sense? - again, in the membership status page the expiration date should be never for all non-contribs. - woah. When I apply for contrib membership I just get the 'application submitted' page; I don't get asked for the information which I need to supply. Going back to the details page shows contributions as 'f' and lets me choose my application manager (listbox) but there's no update button. So: there's no place to fill in the needed info. That's all for now. Anyone else have comments etc? Thanks, Nils.
