[iaoa-infrastructure] proposal for testing another telecon service: Rendez-Vous

[Kutz Oliver]

Dear all, 

definitely we should try out this service. 

I have another slighly pressing issue, namely getting my 10 institutional members at unibz into the database. 

When registering at 

https://iaoa.org/members/users/edit-user-a.php

and using the email from last year to renew a member, we get

"e-mail address already registered in the database"

Is this not yet implemented, or are we following the wrong procedure?

Anybody knows?

Best, Oliver
