Speaking from experience with tcsh releases, juggling patches through mail became pretty difficult. I'm much happier now that we are using a tracker. Not that it replaces discussion on the mailing list. (Discussing anything in tracker notes is awful.) I'd like to see nmh survive as well, but I'm already one of those who migrated to another mail client (mutt) due to the increased amount of MIME mail. It was the multipart PGP signatures that finally did it for me. And of course, it doesn't help that for whatever reason Savannah mail never arrives to my normal mail system, and there is nobody to debug that.
