        No, I simply subscribed to the cooker mailing list.  No
username/password needed.

        If this is true, then I understand the need for it.  But it seems
like there's a better way.

        Hmm... I don't know what you're talking about here, I didn't go
that far into it.  Maybe I should have spent just a little more time on
it.  If the page had said, "We require a username / login because we were
getting too much spam" I would have been willing to put more time into it.


Thanks,
Derek
