The phrasing of "the current Mailman 2.1 branch belongs to the GNU- Mailman project" seems odd. > > Absolutely not.

To be honest, I felt your post here https://code.launchpad.net/~jks/mailman/hcaptcha/+merge/389691/comments/1024988 was a bit over the top. You seem to have gone on and on about listing all the possible things that I would need access to, as though it would be such an impossibility for the Cabal to approve. > Please stop painting me as an obstructionist who wants to kill Mailman > 2.1. I do not think that's a fair characterization. I'm not here to judge you, I think your position on Mailman 2.1 is very clear, and I think my good and thankful opinion of you is well understood by the readers of this email. -Jim P. ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list -- mailman-users@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to mailman-users-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/mailman-users.python.org/ Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: https://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users@python.org/ https://mail.python.org/archives/list/mailman-users@python.org/
