And i've continued to work on mailman, among other things disengaging
the internal, old version of pipermail and tailoring it to work with an
external archiver (specifically) like andrew's new version of pipermail.
If you can wait, i'm going to make a new release available over the
weekend, in conjunction with andrew's release of the new pipermail.  (I
may make a preview available on friday, in order to give some time for
people to identify any major showstoppers in my release, since i'll be
away for most of the subsequent week...)
