Mikhail, mailman-users is not the best place to have technical discussions about developing Mailman.

This is one of the biggest reasons why I moved the code to the Bazaar VCS. I'd really like to see a rich variety of live branches out there, with patches, new features and so on. It should be easy to keep them up-to-date, to be living implemented proofs of the code, and to be much more easily merged into the trunk. Patches sitting in a tracker are like dead code. - -Barry -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (Darwin) iD8DBQFHn/kl2YZpQepbvXERAglzAKCUVYS7Qtw72ALAFMpx1b3OVLx2/QCgnPZV 1q5qqFSd1QYOrff5brepfN4= =/c0y -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
