You are subscribed to mailman-users, not mailman-developers.

Not true. There have been extreme moderation delays recently and your
post was only delivered to the mailman-users list on Sunday and it has
not been ignored.

I apologize for the moderation delay. We have added more resources to
the task which we hope will help.

If you read the archives of the mailman-users and mailman-developers
lists, I think you'll find that the above statement is unjustified.

Further, during the moderation delay, I had an irc conversation on
#mailman with someone about the subject of your original mailman-users
post. Was that you? Does that seem like I think your issue is not
worth my time?
