Hi, Brian,
i'm not sure I'm much more knowledgeable than Kampala, but I may be (part of) the probem.
I have recently taken over as group treasurer, but don't yet fully understand the details of the membership process.
I see that you paid $30 for full membership using PayPal on Monday, and it may be that I was supposed to do something with that information. I will look into what needs to happen next. (Unfortunately, I am currently in Egypt, and don't have constant connectivity, so turnaround may be slower than normal.)
