Uh? My question was about the mailman mailing list?!? How is that related
to Windows?

In any other respect, I take your response as rather... snobbish. Not sure
how much of it represent the fossil position, but If fossil does not *want*
to support windows, then it should remove the windows edition instead of so
obviously looking down on its (I'd suppose many) windows users. But thanks
anyway. :-(
