Hello,
We personally exchanged some mail with Tomas and I think we agreed that my mail was maybe too harsh for the situation, so I apologize if anyone got offended.
It contained some questions still waiting to be answered, though :-))
(And maybe some ideas to be refined, especially the original on mailman-users.)
best wishes, grin

I want to thank Peter for this post. I personally try to get to Mailman stuff a couple times a week, but in the interests of time management, I generally don't respond to very much absolutely immediately. Some weeks it's worse than others, and I think it's just been a bad one for most of us :)
