Thanks for this. All working fine this end. Only thing I can see is the version text still says that it is running RC3.

Hi Mark, I pulled down

http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mailman/mailman-2.1.16.tgz

and my list web interface shows version 2.1.16rc3. Maybe someone forgot to bump Version.py ?

Actually, it's a bit more tangled than that. For those keeping score at home, I have a script that I use to 1) bump the version 2) tag the release and 3) package the tarball. The issue is step 1) bumps the version, but doesn't commit, then step 2) tags the latest (prior) commit and then commits, and step 3) packages the tagged version which doesn't have the bump. Sometimes I remember to commit between steps 1) and 2), and sometimes I don't.

I have updated the script to commit after the bump in step 1) which will avoid this in the future I hope.

I have replaced the tarballs at the download sites:

https://launchpad.net/mailman/2.1/ http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mailman/ https://sourceforge.net/projects/mailman/

with ones that have the correct version. This is the only difference between the new tarballs and the prior ones. If you downloaded one earlier and care about the displayed version, you can either download a new one or apply the attached Version.py.patch.
