[NCUC E-team] [NCUC-Events] Fixing the website, starting with team listings

[Pranesh Prakash]

[removing the events list from CC]

Stefania, I'm unclear what the script that needs to be fixed is.

AFAICT, there's a bash script "teams2html" that Tapani's written that in
turn calls Mailman's in-built "list_members" function which seems to be
reading the members' full names (as it is called with the -f flag).

AFAICT, the actual setting of someone as "coordinator" is happening by
making the full name of a person "Firstname Lastname, coordinator"
instead of just "Firstname Lastname".  So I'm not sure how modding the
list_members function would help.  The one other possibility is to
re-jig the database.  But I, for one, think this quick-and-dirty 'hack'
is actually better. :)
