password requested at subscription time is too much
Hi,
I posted a while ago a patch to make mailman choose a password for the new subscriber should she not enter one in the boxes. I think this preserves all privacy concerns, as the password generated will be sent to her and she can modify it at any time. And it makes subscription easier. Will this patch be integrated? One would also like to modify the default "we value your privacy" message to add something like "if you do not enter a password we will elicit one for you".
happy new year to mailman, which is starting to take over everywhere I look at!

The following will allow mailman to be configured and built in a subdirectory of the source tree; my preferred method. It should not affect those that prefer to do this directly in the source tree. If someone could see their way clear to commit this, I would be grateful.

I have a set of makefile patches to allow installation from a configured subdirectory. Again, these should not affect those that prefer to build in the source tree. Anyone care to review these for possible submission?
