Sorry if this question is a bit off-topic in the list, but how are these lists maintained? Or, are they maintained at all?
Because of a problem with spam filtering (see below), I wrote to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> twice (25 Feb, 8 Mar) and till today (2 months later) I didn't even get a reply. Also the serious (IMHO) problem with phishings in the archives I mentioned below still exists. I've now let the MLM kick me out, and subscribed again from another address with a differently set up spam filter, though only to this list (no more to help-bison and bison-patches), and I might unsubscribe again. BTW, if there will be any questions or issues about my (few) contributions, feel free to contact me by PM as I might not read it on the lists.
