[Mailman-Developers] Feedback for mailman developers

[Adrian Bye]

Hi guys (and RMS, copied),

About 3 years ago I made this post:

http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman
-developers/2005-February/017850.html

As a result, I get an email every 1-2 months from people asking for an
updated patch.

I felt at the time it was an important project.  I was told it was not, so I
made it myself.  And, it was refused to be added to the main fork of mailman
which was quite frustrating.

Given the volume of email requests I get about it, my opinion seems to be
confirmed.  I wanted to bring it to your attention, and hope something will
be done about it.  These are just people who are figuring out my email
address on the web and contacting me.  There must be many more who don't
actually ask me about it.

If another group wants to step up and improve mailman, it might be a good
time to do so.  This is a critical project which could become the
centerpiece of a lot of important software if it was improved.

Best regards,

Adrian
