EVERYONE is welcome to join the Forum - this is separate from the SIG and does not require you to be a SIG member.

However, you must join before you can post messages.

When first joining the forum, you must enter a unique username, password and email.

You will then receive two emails, the first welcoming you to the forum, the second approving your account.  Please not that this second email may be delayed by a day or two as all members are approved manually.

Once you account has been approved, the second email will provide a link to your profile.  You MUST immediately change the "Name" field to your real name (i.e. first name and last name).  If you do not do this when you first log in, your account will be locked and you will not be able to use it.  Unlike other forums, we believe that there is no reason why forum members should not user their real names.

Any use of abusive language and any racial, sexual or other discrimination will result in the user having their account locked and potentially deleted.
