Perhaps the failure of the mailman dev team to attract communityparticipation can be related not to any crazy versioning scheme but rather to a failure to engage with the community. I have only recently subscribed to this list and I can say that you and every other person that read my e-mail saw fit to ignore it. Your null hypothesis, namely that people who send questions and not patches to the list are not worth your time, costsyou dearly in the long run.
Hi Brian,I'm sorry, but I don't remember seeing your message on the list. For any misunderstandings like this, I take full blame and responsibility. I can say that I value all contributions from the community, whether it be in the form of questions, patches, complaints, kudos, or stacks of dollar bills. :)
I think the mailman-developers list is fairly typical for an open source project. I invite you to repost your message and this time I'll keep an eye out for it.
