Hi Brian,

I'm sorry, but I don't remember seeing your message on the list.  For  
any misunderstandings like this, I take full blame and  
responsibility.  I can say that I value all contributions from the  
community, whether it be in the form of questions, patches,  
complaints, kudos, or stacks of dollar bills. :)

I think the mailman-developers list is fairly typical for an open  
source project.  I invite you to repost your message and this time  
I'll keep an eye out for it.

-Barry
