Barry Warsaw has created a mailman hosting site for Python User Groups. The
hosting is free and all administration is handled through the mailman web
interface. The instructions for getting your list created have been added to
the User Groups page:

  http://www.python.org/UserGroups.html#usergroups

If you already have a Python User Group, but don't have a mailing list or
would like to move your existing group to mailman, this is a simple way to
make the switch.

This is also a great opportunity to start a Python User Group in your area.

BTW, we're looking for a volunteer to lead the Python user groups effort. We
need some web pages to help people get started creating a group, the
benefits, etc. If you're interested in leading this effort or have past
experience in organizing user groups and would like to help, please email me
directly. Local Python advocacy and support is important to promoting
Python. A big thanks to Barry for taking care of the mailing list obstacle.
