I don't know how feasible it would be to implement, but if you're willing to use AJAX, you could simply build up bar and line charts on the fly, adding "slices" of say 5 users at a time on the right side of the chart in progress.  That might be cool.  It could be set in a "viewport" and scrolled if it gets too big for the viewport.

Yes, AJAX can do the job here. I will implement the AJAX bar as you described, although i think it's better to primarily have a non-Javascript output.

I would just like to restate my plea for the ability to manage Mailman without needing javascript. Note that I'm not saying don't use any, I'm merely asking for it to be possible to use without it.

I use lynx as my primary browser, and while general web surfing can be a bit tricky these days, it's very quick and useful for doing admin-type things, and I for one would like to be able to continue to do so. Certainly I have no problems using Mailman 2'.1's interface with lynx, and have been doing so for many years.

If my memory serves me correctly, this was generally felt to be a reasonable request when I first mentioned it. I'm sure it's in the archives somewhere.
