CRM-8779 CiviMember is Renewing Members with Disabled Member Types Even Though New Member Types are Actively Selected in Form (Public Side) and Manually by the Admin (Private Side)

Per Lobo, he thinks this is a bug. Refer to the original posting in the forum. http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,21283.0.html

....the system is disregarding both the user (public side) and the admin (private side) when they actively choose one of the new member types. I tested this myself on the admin side by renewing an "old" member type and changing the member type before saving the membership. It disregarded my change and reverted to the old member type. On the public side, the user is only presented with the new member types on the form when they select them for renewal and yet, their member type is reverting to the old member type.....
