Hi Arik,
Thank you for clear response. I understand why you asking me these
questions.
I'm not a member of this python group. You cann't find my
email here. I was invited by Ofer because we together are members of
Plone Foundation. I know Ofer from first days of Foundation.
I'm active member of Russian python community. And participate in Plone
popularization effort. Better than I about me can say my works, please
check http://plone.org.ru/ site, I'm author, main developer, editor,
etc. This site about Python, Plone, Zope/Zope3 and open source itself.
Now closed for redesign my second python oriented project - Russian
Python CookBook (http://cook.python.ru/).
As real open source ideologist I'm offering my little help to this
group.

Okay. I didn't say it was, I said it was phrased like one, plus it's
the 1st email from him on the list.
In the security business, there's the term 'trust'. I had absolutely
no reason to trust Mikhail, except for a google search on his name.
Being a security industry for a long time, and seeing a message which
looks like a commercial offering from a first time member, I didn't
trust Mikhail one bit.
Mikhail is also plone foundation member and developed with me other plone
products in the past.
I trust him more than I trust many other people that I know.

Now I trust you because I have seen you on this list before and I've
seen your interactions with the group. Saying that you trust Mikhail
make me trust him by proxy.
Don't get me wrong, I like Plone (although never installed it) and I
really appreciate your and Mikhail's efforts, it's just a simple
matter of receiving an email message requesting a DNS change from
someone I don't know. It's as simple as that. What you wrote above is
enough credentials for me.
At any rate, like I said before, the DNS entry has been put in place.
I tried it yesterday and it worked, only it gave me a message about an
unconfigured site in Russian. I tried it again today and it still
works, only I can't get to the site itself for some reason.
