Just Fyi ... Because we are manually setting up new members now, things work a little differently than they did previously.
I'll notify you when the new account is ready. You will not be able to log in, because the password is left behind your password we will send a replacement password to your email. As soon as you receive it, log in and change it to what you prefer.The passwords are encrypted so we can't see them.
If you have any problems, just contact me here.

Hi tahanson43206Thanks, I'll be thrilled to be part of the Forum! The username I'd like to use is "CaptJTorriani".
Responding to SpaceNut's question, I discovered the NewMarsForum in a post from the Mars Society Discussion Group "Mission Design Concepts".

For SpaceNut ... daily report ...
There was no new email from our applicant from Mexico ...
I sent this update in hopes he will be back soon with an ID name he'd prefer ...
...Your application seems to have been received in a subdued manner. Perhaps that is to be expected. We have just begun the process of recruiting new members. I am willing to proceed with accepting your application, and will be ready to create an account when you return the name you wish to use.
As you have studied the forum, you will recognize that we have at least 3 PhD level members, and several Masters level ones, including a working engineer who lives in Northern England. His expertise is nuclear power, which is sure to be of great importance on Mars.
SpaceNut has inquired about how you discovered us, so perhaps at some point you could help us to improve our outreach efforts ...

I am happy to report that we have our first inquiry from a person who I do not already know! I've prepared a reply and will be sending it shortly.
As soon as I can figure out how to handle the technical details, I will post the correspondence here! The NewMars Correspondence computer is independent of the others in the local network, so it will take a few minutes to figure out how to deliver the correspondence to the NewMars forum.
Edit#1 ... well! That wasn't so hard! I just logged into NewMars forum from the Correspondence Computer.

Hi! Hope this mail finds you well. I'm writing to you because I would like to be a part of the NewMarsForum. My name is (name) from Mexico City, I'm a mechatronics engineer and right now I'm studying a MSc in Autonomous Vehicles of Aerial and Underwater Navigation at CINVESTAV. I would like to contribute to the Mars Forum with my technical knowledge in engineering, robotics, CAD design, 3d printing, mathematical modeling of dynamic systems and control. Also I'm looking forward to learning about current research about martian UAVs and rovers.Many thanks and best regards,

Thanks for your email. And thank you for writing in English! It will be good to have a Spanish speaker in the group for a number of reasons! We have a member in Italy who speaks a bit of Japanese in addition to Italian. The Mars undertaking will surely be a global enterprise!
The first person admitted as a member is someone I know personally, who is working on a new CPU design. It would be most fitting to bring your interests and expertise into the group. However, since you are are first member we do not know ahead of time, we (you and I and SpaceNut and the members) will explore the procedure together.
The first step is that I will post your application. You will be able to find it later today in the Recruiting topic.
In planning ahead, please think about the member name you would prefer. You can find out if the name is already taken by using the User List search tool. If the name you want is taken by a Spam account, I will give the account to you.

Policy: Since we are setting a precedent here that will guide our future procedures, I am inviting all Registered Members to comment upon this application. In the past, we have seen a "sink or swim" environment. I would like to hear from someone willing to assist this prospective new member with questions that will surely come up. The Administrators and Moderators will be here to assist as well, but I am looking for someone who will be available to correspond about any problems that might come up using private email.
Well! This is definitely encouraging! Bravo!

We've gone several (Earth) days without spam, so I am guardedly hopeful only legitimate inquiries will show up at the email for NewMarsMember.

Active request: RobertDyck - Large Ship Project - Need experienced chef to plan flight for 1000+ people for 2 years - civilian or military experience
Opportunity: Help to design internal combustion engine and related infrastructure for Mars, using CO/O2-CO2. Experience preferred but student OK.
There is an opportunity to concentrate on either a piston engine design, or a closed gas turbine design for Mars.
Related opportunities exist to design construction equipment using either of the above, or an all-electric solution, or a combination to provide force to operate construction equipment designed for Mars.

There is another need ... Mars Society appears to have a wiki capability that might be suitable for permanent storage of knowledge accumulated during project development. It would be helpful if someone were to investigate to see how that system works, and whether the NewMars knowledge could be stored there in a way that helps with project development.
The Large Ship project would benefit by having a permanent home, where specifications defined by RobertDyck are easily available for reference.
The Internal Combustion Engine project is another example of an initiative that would benefit if advice/facts from forum members could be stored permanently in a fashion that is easy for future contributors to find, and to which new additions could be made conveniently.

SpaceNut ...
This is tahanson43206, reporting success in creating a new membership as a test of the registration system. The automated email message with the trial password arrived after a delay, but it did arrive the same day.
With your permission, I would like to use this new ID to send email to new members who provide an email address for contact by other members. My purpose in doing this would be to inquire if they might be interested in helping with the Hacienda initiative.
A warning message appears when email is sent to members who have enabled the email feature, stating that the email address registered with newmars.com will be shown to the newmars forum member.
I will follow up with the Antarctica tour gent to see if a message from newmars.com might have shown up after a delay.
