mod_http_muc_log: Tweak style towards the "modern" Also accidentally converted the hand-minified CSS to SCSS for easier editing. This gets rid of the <q> element because it makes browsers (at least Firefox) add annoying quotes to any text copied out of them, interfering with opening non-linkified URLs. That could have been considered a sort of security mechanism, but convenience trumps security!

Introduction
============

Invites are an intermediate way between opening registrations completely and
closing registrations completely.

By letting users invite other users to the server, an administrator exposes
themselves again to the risk of abuse.

To combat that abuse more effectively, this module allows to store (outside
of the user’s information) who created an invite which was used to create the
user’s account.

Details
=======

Add to `modules_enabled`.

Caveats
=======

- The information is not deleted even when the associated user accounts are
  deleted.
- Currently, there is no way to make any use of that information.
