public class RegisterServlet
extends DSpaceServlet

Servlet for handling user registration and forgotten passwords.

This servlet handles both forgotten passwords and initial registration of users. Which it handles depends on the initialisation parameter "register" - if it's "true", it is treated as an initial registration and the user is asked to input their personal information.

The sequence of events is this: The user clicks on "register" or "I forgot my password." This servlet then displays the relevant "enter your e-mail" form. An e-mail address is POSTed back, and if this is valid, a token is created and e-mailed, otherwise an error is displayed, with another "enter your e-mail" form.

When the user clicks on the token URL mailed to them, this servlet receives a GET with the token as the parameter "KEY". If this is a valid token, the servlet then displays the "edit profile" or "edit password" screen as appropriate.
