==How to process the membership database==
Processing the database requires UNIX scripts, which I ([[Brett Wuth]]) keep
on the PCSAR virtual machine.

Unless you understand UNIX, you're not likely to understand much
of this. If you need to get someone else to do this, you'll need to
find someone with UNIX or Linux shell skills.

The scripts check for changes in the database, so they keep a
running record of the last changes they've seen.

=== Pending edits ===
Check my marked up copy of the call out list to see any changes
that may be necessary.

=== Extract and validate ===
{{rbw}} to do: optimize for speed (last run 7min)

==Non-monthly processing==
These are tasks that aren't done on a regular basis. Some of
them haven't been done in long time and their instructions are now
out of date.

=== copy to Brett's laptop ===

Because the remaining steps don't run on the PCSAR virtual machine yet, the file must be copied to Brett's laptop and run from there.
