First off, for those of you who tried to register with AOL addresses, 
there is a problem with AOL and mail can't reach there so accounts can't 
be activated.

If you send me an email with your preferred address, I will change your 
email address from AOL to a non-AOL one so you can activate your account.


Secondly, I've added 2 new sections to the site.

Sponsors - lists the groups and publishers helping us out. Of primary 
interest is the publishers, Apress, O'Reilly, and Packt. If ordering 
directly through their sites, you can use member codes to get an 
additional discount(I'll be adding those codes up as soon as I can).

Reviews - this section is half implemented. Right now I have SOBI2 
configured with the appropriate fields so members can add books to the 
list of interested books. I'll be configuring a review section so 
members can review the books(I will also be noting which books are in 
the NYC JUG library, those books I'll bring to the meeting and if anyone 
wants to borrow them untill the next meeting, you can bring it back, 
mail it back to me, or mail it on to the next interested party. In 
order to borrow a book you must:
1) Sign up for an account on the site
2) Show up at a meeting in person(:-))
3) You can borrow 1 book at a time(2 books as the library grows or there 
is not enough interest for the first half dozen of books I bring)
4) You must post a review of the book to our website! Our access to 
books for the library is dependent on posting reviews. Note: it does 
not have to be a good review, if you don't find a book usefull say so!

Feel free to add books to the list of books up there that may be of 
interest to Joomla developers and review them if you have them. I will 
do my best to get copies of the books for the library.

Well, adding a review module for SOBI was painless.

Ok, so now everything is in place, feel free to review and rate books, 
add new books, etc.

I've got to pick up the first shipment of books later today and then I 
can go ahead and update the database.

In the meantime, let me know if there are any problems extending the 
database.
