You were rejected by a misconfigured computer program, not a human. It's unfortunate that this has cost you a week of angst and hard feelings, but you're not the first to have tripped over this. As your bounces make clear, you were sending to the old, decommissioned lists at sourceforge, and -not- the current lists at ivtvdriver.org, probably because you found the sourceforge lists via a search. I've complained in the past that this is a smoking gun waiting to screw people, and it looked like you just got burned (to mix three metaphors together in a lovely stew). In theory, someone will eventually manage to get sourceforge to take those lists down -and-, one would hope, to put big, prominent warnings all over their archives and any other pages that everything there is obsolete and that people should be looking at ivtvdriver.org instead, but apparently it hasn't happened yet. (Marking "interior" pages are important because often people find those via search and never see the so-called toplevels.) It's -particularly- unfortunate that the current list configuration actually lets you -attempt- to subscribe and/or post, but then bounces all attempts after a multi-day delay when some internal timer expires (because no human has approved the request yet, because no human is even reading the requests). This makes it -look- like what you tried should succeed, and that somebody's being deliberately unhelpful, and is an even worse fakeout than just obsolete pages that haven't been updated in months. I'm CC'ing ivtv-devel in the hopes that someone might be able to really get this situation fixed. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
