Actually, there is no English (en, en-US, en-UK or other) message catalog distributed with Mailman. There are templates, but no message catalog. All of the translatable strings in the Mailman code are written in English, and since there is no English message catalog, they are untranslated when the target language is English. As far as whether or not any of the strings are specifically US rather than generic English is concerned, I don't know. One would have to audit the messages/mailman.pot file to determine that. However, I think a requirement that Mailman use only "generic" English and avoid any en-US that differs from other dialects would be unduly restrictive. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
