Re: Emembership

[Tom Gormley <gormleygreenery@gmail.com>]

Bob & All,
You are correct that it should have happened within hours if not minutes.
Unfortunately the news that it was ready to go was optimistic at best. There
are still two or three components that need to be fixed before the
emembership function is working. I am working with John Jones to get these
resolved and apologize to those who believed what we said. I'm hopeful that
these issues will be resolved this weekend.
