[MR] Online Payments Again

[Jonathas]

Actually the Un-Official Calendar which I built a few years ago (which is
still available at http://calendar.duncarraig.net and is currently being
updated by Lady Alexandra), was originally designed around a concept close
to that, more of "a friend sent in the reservations for me".  I had worked
with a few of the local reservationists to develop the whole thing.  It
included an online system (with the credit cards actually being handled by a
online bank), and a register online but pay by check system as well, with
printable reports for the Troll to have on hand.  But alas Corporate said
no, so the calendar exists but with the most useful part disabled for now...
(the original registration system is still visible at
www.duncarraig.net/reservations for those who might like to see it, submit a
new *fake* event if you would like to see the admin/reservationist side)

Since that was a dead end I've turned my energy and talents on to other
projects like the Archery Scorekeeper system :)    And Siegfried has some
new toys at his disposal, but you'll have wait just a little bit longer to
find out what they are <grin>.

In Service to Atlantia and its people,
Jonathas
