The website is run on CollabNet's software, the internal workings of which the community has little control over. The login issue is well known and has been discussed on this list numerous times in the past; it is a caching bug. For whatever reason, the server caches pages even when the user is logged in. Be assured though that behind the scenes, when you log in, you do stay logged in, no matter what the header says. We may have to look at changing the wording to make it more vague so that the bug is less evident. We've had an issue open for over a year on this and nothing has happened so we might have to resort to a cheap and nasty hack fix :( > 2. Mailing List Manager.

I don't know if such a page exists (maybe someone else on the list can clarify), but if it doesn't I'm afraid there's probably little we can do :( > Hopefully I haven't made a fool of myself by asking for a feature that > already exists!
