Thanks to Sebb, it looks like the code to parse the pdf form is in 
whimsy/www/secretary/iclaparser.rb

But I cannot figure out how it works, since the pdf form field names are not in 
the code, just the form field names stripped of blanks and special characters. 
I looked at the raw .pdf file and it does contain stuff like [1].

And after Sebb's recent changes, the pdf form field for E-mail now works 
(again?)

So I guess we can now talk about how to implement the secretary creating 
accounts?
