This is getting interesting...  I'm looking to hack up the admin interface 
to lock in some defaults and also to remove some of the options that tend 
to confuse simple "announce list" users.

I'm handy with PHP and perl, but I've never dug into Python at all.  What 
can you folks recommend as far as a crash-course in Python?

Thanks,

Charles
