Hmm, it already does that. When you select membership, it displays them in chunks of 10 or something. I've upped mine to 30, and would actually prefer 100.
I must have broken this somehow. Checking into it...

Ahh. Very good points. The latter isn't exactly feasable in a few
cases, but it's a start.
- move the archives to http://host/mailman/archives/listname or provide a redirect from there to http://host/pipermail/listname.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but can't you do that in Apache with a slightly modified version of the lines you already have in there to get the "/mailman/" and "/pipermail/" URLs to work?
I hadn't thought of that. Yes, it should work. I've added a third
"Alias" line to Apache's srm.conf:
Alias /icons/ /home/httpd/icons/ Alias /pipermail/ /home/mailman/archives/public/ Alias /mailman/archives/ /home/mailman/archives/public/
I left the old one in in case the change broke something. As a side
note, I'll say that I was more concerned with URL uniformity than the actual location of the archiver and data.
Lastly, I'd like to note that, while I understand most of what'sgoing on in the code, I don't have time ATM to sit down and really learn
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^Yeah, that seems to be the common problem these days. Too much demand, too few geeks.
Perhaps, but that's also why some of us are paid well. ;-)
