I don't think so. If they ask for that on the list, that already means that their need is large enough. List-owners needn't to know any computer language, and in fact probably most of the list-owners do not know any, and you shouldn't expect that they will learn it just to implement a feature in mailman - that's an utopian expectation. > Frequently, near enough to invariably as to be easily mistaken for it, > that is not the case. People sometimes offer their code on the list (a few months ago a code to add the links in archive, and now the quotation filter). It's now the developers' task not to waste that generous offer and implement it in the mailman distribution. > Any decent engineer (or otherwise) can think of a thousand great ideas > an hour.

Sure, but still idea is first. Without an idea there would be no code. ak _______________________________________________ Mailman-Developers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-developers/archive%40jab.org
