These sound like sensible plans and I'm curious about what 2.2 and 3.0 will bring. However, my question is whether we can expect some 2.1.x releases in the short term (like 2.1.10 you mentioned). As you say it will take quite some while for 2.2 to be released, and we'd like to get the fixed bugs in the 2.1.x branch to our users in the meantime. Regular 2.1.x releases with assorted fixes would be welcome to not scare users away from Mailman while we're waiting for the "big" releases. thanks, Thijs
