Having a mailing list is a good idea. I was thinking about (ab)using perl-win32-porters for that, as the real Win32 porting stuff is happening on p5p anyways. But I agree that a new mailinglist would be better. I don't really care were it is hosted; I can also get one setup at ActiveState if that is easier. I believe Sarathy made me co-maintainer of libwin32 on PAUSE. But since libwin32 is a bundle of modules also maintained by other people, with separate PAUSE settings, and I've never made an upload of libwin32 yet, we may see some problems the very first time I try to upload it. I'll be leaving to Europe on vacation after next week, so I won't be able to get anything done until January. Cheers, -Jan
