+<p>Unfortunately cavers tend to use weird and playful names when signing up for things, 
+so we can't automatically connect the troggle names and ids with the email addresses 
+on the email list. And we don't believe in signing people up for things without their
+direct permission anyway.
+Having said that, we <em>will</em> sign you up automatically to the expo email list as
+that is how expo manages everything and it is a condition of coming on expo.
 
+<p>But the automatic sign-up to the email list is not working yet, and may not be before April 2025. 
+So if you don't want to miss out on anything important, make sure you sign up to the 
+<a href="https://lists.wookware.org/cgi-bin/mailman/roster/expo">email list</a>
+right now.
 
+<h3>Students !</h3>
+Please do not use an email address which will expire when you leave your current institution.
+This will happen much sooner than you realise.
 
+<h3>Security note</h3>
+We never store passwords at all, we only store a cryptographic hash. 
+We do store your email address but only 'in clear' inside the live database online
+where it is accessible only to the database administrators. There is no troggle report
+which publishes your email address. 
+For permanent storage all email addresses are encrypted. Your troggle
+username is public however, and we do not have anonymous people attending expo.
+<p>The password we are asking for is used only to log on to troggle to keep track of
+who is editing the current expo records, website content, historic survey data and 
+when using the expo kanban software. It is not the same as the password to access your email 
+and it is not the same as the password you use to interact with the expo email list.
