-This is mailman, maillist management software written mostly in
-Python. Mailman was originally developed by John Viega. Ken
-Manheimer picked it up after substantial revisions of the development
-version were lost in a system crash, and refined some of the rough
-edges, enough so that mailman is now the production system for
-python.org. We expect to continue to develop mailman, and see
-blossoming of this very promising foundation as other people join in.
