[Pythonmac-SIG] Proof of concept - Cocoa Python applet with Interface Builder!

[Bill Bumgarner]

I believe there is value in keeping the NIB/ObjC discussion on pyobjc 
simply because the discussion is so specific to a particular aspect of a 
very particular platform.  But, whatever, I have almost zero time to 
devote to this stuff right now and, as such...

	Tag! Steve! You're it!

I am embarrassed to admit that I currently have *no idea* what the admin 
password is to the pyobjc mailing list.   I will ping the SF 
administrators and see what can be done -- when it is resolved, Steve can 
take admin.
