I'm allways impressed about the Internet - I've thought that I know most
Perl/PHP/Java/ASP based MLMs and bulletin board systems but Sympa is new to
me.

Yes, go for it. After all, various tech-edge - software - products for
serving/tranforming XML (including Sablotron and Charlie) are just that -
products. The serious Internet word at least in my country this year is
content and having products AND practical example/subproducts/interfaces of
serving content can easily distinguish one product from another. If it is
open-sourced so much the better and if is't open-minded too it can easily
beat much stronger commercial products/platforms (like for example now AxKit
having better and allready IMPLEMENTED features than ASP.NET modules etc).
BTW I've stated a question about possible writing of WebSphere Portal
Server portlets in Javascript at recent IBM's web event. The answer was yes
and stated Java and JSP among other languages/platforms. I don't think the
guy who answered this gets it and how much Javascript (or Javascript-like)
interface eases implementation (like it is possible in Charlie) as usually
one can not find good Java (or Perl, usually only PHP and/or ASP)
programmers at client's site. Well, I can imagine a Javascript/Charlie
controlled "Sympa administration interface" and Sablotron for different XSLT
transformations, yes. Great!
