What worries me is that pipermail's "integration" with Mailman has been a blocker (at the very least, sufficiently enthusiasm-sapping) for real improvements in Mailman's archiving system for about a *decade*. OK, so the new archiver/searcher is whizzy and nice, but realistically, people are going to find a million use cases that the new system doesn't do yet. Some people will prefer pipermail (if only from inertia). Some will want to use a third-party system. It needs to be easy for people to choose. If we don't do the surgery now, when will it get done? _______________________________________________ Mailman-Developers mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-developers%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-developers/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9
