Umm.. it looks to me as though config_list dumps some pythonish code that can be read by config_list to set the list parameters *other* than the membership roster. dumpdb dumps the whole list state, but there is no corresponding restore tool, and the format ends up being a little odd (there are 3 membership lists - normal, digest and member options). > My wish list item goes beyond that to include the membership, with the > various status options for each member. Some sort of extension of > bin/list_members Absolutely - the ability to dump the state into a text file and dicker with it appeals to me greatly :-) And the ability to take the snapshot and add the other membership data I can derive from elsewhere and come up with a very current version would be nice.
