I am no python pro but I guess that funtction _() ist just a wrapper function around gettext.gettext from the gettext module (used for localization). I`ve seen that in lots of places and I think that`s common practise (don`t beat me if I am wrong ;-)). > Mailman is a great product. But that bit of code is not, I think, > very good code. Even the python gettext docs [1] use it that way.
