Bug 2299: combine /admin/invites and /admin/invitecodes
Category: Site Administration
Patch by:

Description: For managing invitations sitewide, you needed to go to /admin/invites to give users invite codes to pass out to others, and /admin/invitecodes to see how many of them were actually used, and by whom. Or is it the other way round? Anyway, now you no longer need to remember. It's all under the same roof.
