Hello! After much absence I am something on the order of
back.

I have just landed a contract that will allow me to
'continue' my work
on the mailman web ui, and my semester is ending, so I will
actually
have some time.

Having struggled mightily to find a way to improve
templating while not
moving to python 2.4 (at least), I have to confess I don't
think there's
a good way to get there.

I tried a couple of "scorched earth" approaches
and I think that was
part of why I didn't get something that worked.

Right now, I think the "low hanging fruit" is to
rip out all the HTML
'style' markup and make all the style applied via
stylesheets.

I would dearly love to have anyone to work with on this
project.

... oh yeah, and I will submit my paperwork to the FSF June
1st, which I
know is "hella late".
