I would like to kill this thread (and suggest using mailman rather than
anything else) as

 * We're lazy (which is a virtue)
 * TMTOWTDI   (and one of them is even python)

Meanwhile if anyone else wants to develop anything else then I suggest
they go ahead while we continue to use mailman, and use the list to
discuss what their plans are.  I think Andy's plans sound great but are
not about to happen RSN.  I'd be more than willing to help pitch in
myself, just point in the direction of the code[1]

Right.  Nuff said.

start at work.

[2] Who hasn't contributed to the box, so shouldn't really get a say, but
would be more than happy to do so)
