[x] new user registration (talked to cip)
[x] last of user payments via PayPal (charged but didn’t report back)
[ ] MailChimp plugin supposedly has a manual trigger to push all new users into mailchimp, deletes dead address from Typo3 registry
[x] figure out how to do news on the new site
[x] enable the lost password functions

Stan talked to Catherine about the first three of these. There's a news extension but we don't see how it works yet.

stan says payments should be working. I will test.

Individual membership payments work and are now showing on the membership reporting page. I need a volunteer to test the payment an institutional membership through PayPal (with a credit card).
Email from the server is now working. Dependent functions (now working) include: forgot password; newly registered user can confirm email and become regular_user. (We are not requiring that newly registered users get reviewed by a secretariat member; they now become regular_users as soon as they confirm their email address.
News items can be added by backend admins using a form that exists there. (To keep costs down, I deferred fixing the form we had that can be accessed by regular users to submit news items. It wasn't used that often. I propose instead that all news items get submitted to and entered by the secretariat.)

Remaining steps before cut-over:

Chuck said that he tested the institutional payment.

The only thing here supposedly undone is the MailChimp push. If that is still an issue, please create a new ticket.
