I understand this, Chuq. For me, the most pressing thing is the SQL activity. And as I have mentioned, we're ready to contribute resources to this end.
Fair 'nuff. I thought you did, but it's stuff that has to be said once in a while, anyway.
I have been harping about SQL in Mailman for a year now but it is only recently that the mere thought of it being worked into MM in one way or another has being entertained. Talking isn't entirely useless. In fact it's necessary in order to influence change. Just so long as it doesn't stop at talk.
I've got a bit of MySQL background. My time is still limited, so I won't commit to coding I can't depend on myself to finish -- but if you want someone to help out on DB design and stuff, I'm in. I'll do what I can and maybe help avoid some of the potholes. I'd like to see this, too.
