[META-SIG] Switchover to mailman

[Ken Manheimer]

I'm about to make the switchover of the meta-sig list to mailman.
This means that you, as a current subscribers of the meta-sig, will be
receiving a "welcome message" for the new version of the list.  It
will include your new list password and instructions for using it to
change your subscription parameters, with lots of neat features.
Check it out.  If you have any questions or comments, either send them
directly to me or, if you feel they're of general impact, post them to
the meta-sig list.

For those of you interested in using mailman, yourself, we've got the
mailman package available at:

	ftp://ftp.python.org/pub/python/contrib/Network/mailman/

There is a set of my almost-current patches in that directory - i'm
going to be replacing them tomorrow with a newer, better set, and you
would probably be better off waiting a day before picking them up.  I
plan to continue to release patches as i progress, as well as starting
a mailman-developers mailing list for others to join in the fun.  That
maillist will probably happen after the weekend, when john viega,
mailman's author, gets some time to check back in on all this.

Please let me know if you encounter any problems or questions!
