<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, serif">Member Application v2.1.4 is a
maintenance release fixing numerous problems stemming from the
addition of HTML mail functionality and unintended consequences.  It
also has a few little decorative changes you probably won't notice,
but, they make me happier..</FONT></P>
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, serif">This package was tested for
use with Nuke-Evolution v2.0.1 or later, with PHP-Nuke v7.6 patched
with <A HREF="http://www.nukeresources.com/" TARGET="_blank">Chatserv's</A>
3.2 security patch, with PHP-Nuke Platinum v7.6b4v2, with PHP-Nuke
7.8, and with Raven Nuke v2.1.0. No other configurations have been
tested. If this package works for you in a different configuration
please let us know.  It has been reported to work PHP-Nuke 7.9 and
