It probably wasn't but I can build the latest version of Zope which is also a Python app without requiring any source code changes at all, and Zope is a pretty complex app. > Certainly, you're the only person I've ever encountered > who has discussed using Mailman on OS/2. I don't doubt it. Maybe I'm the only OS/2 user who has recognised the quality of Mailman and would also like to use it without having to change platforms ;-)... I've been running Majordomo for several years but am desperate to move to something more feature rich. If anyone can suggest what I can do about the Assertion error I will try to patch my code. It would a shame to pack up at this point since I do have so much of the package working already. > -- > Brad Knowles, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little > temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." > > -- Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790), reply of the Pennsylvania > Assembly to the Governor, November 11, 1755 > > SAGE member since 1995.
