Hello,

I finally got a CE site working on heroku by taking the unglorious
route of copying an existing heroku CE based site. THe glorious
results can be seen on http://ttennis.heroku.com, nothing to write
home about yet.

Since I plan to move a mailing list with ~100 users to CE, I'd like to
know if anyone has any tips on how to batch add users ? I know that if
I go the route of e-mailing users inviting them to sign up that it'll
take months for all of them to do so, thats just how it works. I was
hoping to populate the sqlite database locally using user data I
already have and then upload to heroku. The plan would be that user
[email protected] would be given the default password jack394 and then
would be invited to change it on his first access. Far from perfect
security, but if anyone has any netter ideas, I'm all ears (or eyes to
be exact).
Secondly, when I look at the users table in the database, I see there
is a crytped_password and a salt. My understanding is that the salt is
generated and used to generate the encrypted password. If that is so,
then I should be good to generate a salt and encrypted password for
the list of users. Any advice on an easy way to do this as a batch
would be appreciated, but I'm sure it will be an enjoyable learning
experience.

Many thanks,
Colm
