Hello,
I recently got the latest cvs-release. After installing it I got the following errors:
In HTMLFormatter.py (line 160) a call to a none existsing attribute of MailList
correction: changed the if to
if self.subscribe_policy < 2 :
I don't know if the "< 2" is completely correct, but the real correction probably goes in that direction.
I don't understand you here. What's the exact error you're getting?
In Cgi/admin.py on line 766 there is an error, that line says
list.digest_members.remove(user)
The correction is:
lst.digest_members.remove(user)
I do wonder why nobody hasn't seen these errors before... The error in admin.py was also in 1.04b so at least some of you should have noticed it... Doesn't anyone use the admin pages to set subscriber options?
Well, I just updated HTMLFormatter a little while ago, and haven't tried it out yet. I don't understand you problem with it yet, though. As for the list->lst problem, I did notice that last week, but I hadn't gotten around to making the change in my checked out version and checking it in, I'd only made the fix in a running version. Note that the CVS tree is not garunteed to be in a state that will run whatsoever, though we do try to keep it that way. We only do lots of testing when it comes time for an actual release. (And even then we don't always catch everything).

In the original source file it said "if not self.open_subscribers:" and then you got the error "AttributeError: open_subscribers". Looking at MailList.py I saw that there was no such attribute as "open_subscribers" but a "subscribe_policy" wich contains what open_subscribers should have.
As I said I don't know the value of this correction, but it works now (and looking at what "open_subscribers" and "subscribe_policy" means, I think it's a good correction, correct me I am wrong...)

I was just wondering, not pointing fingers at someone, I maintain a library myself (KDE Foundation Classes) and I know how dificult it is too get a bug free release out (what are beta version for...). I can't even begin imagining how difficult it is to fully test a mailman release, there are so many things that could go wrong...
Compared to other mailinglist manager, mailman is at least 3 years ahead...
Keep up the good work!!!!

It is nice to see how the mother of all mailman installations (the mailman-developers, mailman-users, ... installation) itself keeps sending duplicates, I thought there existed a pathc for that?
I mean: that is not good marketing...
