Actually, ACMG already made that change over a year ago, it's just
that the registration program has never been changed to match. Because
register didn't allow people to choose between athena or techmail, we
left people as status 4. Now when they contact us we can tell them
what to do based on what they want. (I think we also may have been
getting Lincoln Labs people then, and didn't want to make them
automatically eligible.).
Oops. This must have been before I started attending ACMG, and no one
never told me that policy change had been made. Good thing you
mentioned it. :-)
I assume that the right thing that we should put on Moira development's
"TODO" list is changing the registration program so that a user can
choose between an Athena account or a Techmail account?
