It is a good solution for testing functionality of phat, but it begs the 
question: Why test it at all?

The purpose of having a link to accept volunteers is to provide a means 
for the organization that runs the CSuite site to attract volunteers.

In order to achieve that end, they need to do several things:
1) establish a volunteer policy and committee or manager
2) create appropriate pages to describe that policy, and encourage 
volunteers to inquire/sign up.
3) create the infrastructure to support the volunteer system on their 
site, e.g. mailing list, with at least one real recipient (the manager or 
committee chair) or a database with a list of people with access.

Since we on Chebucto are just in process of redesigning that process, we 
now have two choices for installation purposes:

(1) put in nothing, and tell the new system people to design their own

(2) put in what we have now, and make sure the installation process or  
documents either automate the configuration of a template version of 
what we have now, or tell the installer how to customize it to the site's 
needs. 

(3) When our new volunteer system is designed and implemented, over the next 
few months, roll it in as (2).. 

A link to the CCN volunteer page might be construed as slightly inferior  
to (1)

Do we have a list of all the places that need configuration, once the 
automated part of the installation is done?
