>
> In a nutshell, we're working on an online process for the administration

> cards, expirations, authorizations, and the like. Here is kind of a
> run-down of the flow of the new system. I'm going to say "fighter"
> generically.

> Fighter wants to authorize. Authorization marshal may tell the fighter
> about the website before or after authorization exercises. Doesn't really
> matter. When the fighter registers on the site, he will select his
> authorization marshal from a drop down list. Once fighter registration is
> complete, the authorization marshal will get an email saying, "You have a
> fighter who needs to authorize."
>
> The marshal logs in and finds the new fighter assigned to him, and checks
> off on the forms for which the new fighter is authorized. A marshal will
> be
> restricted by the system to only be able to check off on the stuff for
> which
> they are approved. IE, a chiv only marshal can't check off a rapier or
> archery authorization.
>
> The fighter will now get an email back saying, "You are authorized. Go
> print off your card."
>
> The fighter will be able to download a document, probably a PDF, of their
> fighter card. They will be able to retrieve it any time while they are
> still authorized. If they wash it or their dog eats it, they can go print
> another. The kingdom saves hundreds of dollars a year on printing and
> mailing cards to everyone.
>
> We'll be combining this with SCA membership expiration date cards, so
> warranted marshals will have membership driven expiration on their
> warrants
> that are shown in the system.
>
> Should be pretty cool. As soon as I have a few more folks on here, I'll
> be
> posting a link for everyone to go try it out, "get authorized" and so on.
> The print function isn't working. But I want to get feedback on the
> bare-bones of the system.
