by Tokio Kikuchi 11 Dec '04

11 Dec '04

Hi Developers and I18Ners, I've bumped version number of mailman to 2.1.6a2 (a1 was not announced) and made a tarball at my mailman-japanese site. Please get it at: http://mm.tkikuchi.net/mailman-2.1.6a2.tgz Mailman 2.1.6 should be compatible with Python 2.4 and including some nice new features such as numbering in subject prefix and filtering attachments by filename extensions. Please download and test it and help us fixing bugs. Cheers, -- Tokio Kikuchi, tkikuchi@ is.kochi-u.ac.jp http://weather.is.kochi-u.ac.jp/

encoding problem in cron/mailpasswds
by Bartosz Sawicki 06 Dec '04

Hi there, Before new Mailman subversion will be released I'd like to clarify one think inside cron/mailpasswds script. Which in my opinion is buggy for all non unicode translations. Polish translation works perfect accept one think - monthy remainder is sended with wrong encoding. Do other of you notice this problem? I think source of problem is in file cron/mailpasswds, lines 208-209: # Coerce everything to Unicode text = tounicode(text, enc) table = [tounicode(_t, enc) for _t in table] Which is done for every language, and every encoding. After than reminder text is given to Message.UserNotification class, where additional encoding magic is done. I many other places where Message.UserNotification is used no extra encoding translations is made before(e.g. Mailman/Deliverer.py). So the question is: What for we "Coerce everything to Unicode"? If I comment out this two lines in cron/mailpasswds, encoding problem disappers - polish reminders are emailed with proper iso-8859 & QP. So if there is not certain reason to "coerce everything", I propose to delete this two lines. cheers BArtek

I am learning and began to use Mailman. I would like to use it in Persian (Farsi). Is it possible? If Mailman does not exist in farsi, I can still use it in english but the messages written in Farsi? In fact, what do you mean by "Language" in Mailmain? Thanks a lot

Translation update
by Tokio Kikuchi 02 Dec '04

02 Dec '04

Hi, i18ners. We are going to release a new micro-revision of mailman 2.1 series by the end of this year (month ... December). I wish you the translators can spare a little time to update your language mailman.po files. The mailman.pot template file was already generated in the mid-November and merged into the each language po files. You can download it with the latest code from CVS (Release_2_1-maint branch). Or, if you are uneasy downloading from CVS, I've made a tar ball for this version at: http://mm.tkikuchi.net/mailman-2.1.6a.tgz You can update mailman.po directly on CVS if you have the privilege, upload it in the SF patch tracker area, or send me (tkikuchi(a)is.kochi-u.ac.jp) by email at your convenience. Cheers, -- Tokio Kikuchi tkikuchi@ is.kochi-u.ac.jp http://weather.is.kochi-u.ac.jp/
