[RIF][Admin] Zakim ID Codes

Zakim lets people identify themselves via touch-tones as well as
Caller-ID and IRC.   Using IRC doesn't work well when multiple
non-caller-id people arrive at the same time, so I thought we should
give the touch-tones a try. 

I just sent mail to the people who Zakim most often fails to recognize,
telling them their codes:

   Chris_Welty
   Darko_Anicic
   Dave_Reynolds
   Donald_Chapin
   Giorgos_Stamou
   Guizhen_Yang
   Harold_Boley
   Hassan_Ait-Kati
   Holger_Lausen
   Jeff_Pan
   John_Hall
   Mala_Mehrotra
   Peter_F_Patel-Schneider
   Philippe_Bonnard

If you think it would be useful for you to have a code as well, please
let me know.

By the way, one way to test that you are correctly identified is to
enter "41#40#" on your phone.  You should see on IRC something like:
    
* Zakim hears YourName's hand up
* Zakim sees YourName on the speaker queue
* Zakim hears YourName's hand down
* Zakim sees no one on the speaker queue

This should work even if you are muted.  Obviously this is slightly
disruptive to the meeting, but it's better than muting the wrong person
or having the attendance records be wrong, so feel free to do it if
you're not confident you are correctly identified on the call.
