As far a I know, the public beta can be pubicly discussed on this
mail list (the use list). The details of 2.9 are not supposed to be
limited to the improve list, since everybody can sign up for beta
testing without signing an NDA.
Since bugs are stored in a public database,

The easiest way to send mail is probably http://article.gmane.org/

Hi Len,
First I have to say that I try to minimize dialogs use.
In many cases, I use a group on the current card but with a darker
background because, as a user, I hate to have hundreds windows, all
different, that show up and have to be closed as you can see them in
MS Word for instance.

Hi Mark,
Maybe I'm missing something, but it seems that cgiemail is designed
to work when generated from an html input form. What I need to do is
send an email directly to a recipient right from my Rev cgi program
(where the email address is coming out of a database...not from a
form).
Thanks to everyone for their responses. It appears that:
1) There are MANY ways to handle dialog boxes (I knew that before)
2) The is NO best way to do it.
I guess Rev's blessing of flexibility can also be a curse! :-)

It's been my experience that you have to perform a Save As on the
