Announcing Mailman 2.0 release candidate 2

This is it.  Mailman 2.0 release candidate 2 is now available from
SourceForge at

    http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=103

www.list.org and www.gnu.org should be updated soon.

Excerpts from the NEWS file are given below.  Of primary importance in
this release is the fix of the last known mail duplication bug, and
updated on-line documentation.  You can view the documentation at

    http://mailman.sourceforge.net

Please let me know if you find any errors in the docs.  Unless
something's royally screwed, those are the only changes I'll make
before 2.0 final.  Plan for that one week from today: Friday November
17th.

Enjoy,
-Barry

Announcing Mailman 2.0 release candidate 3

Mailman 2.0 release candidate 3 is now available from SourceForge at

    http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=103

www.list.org should be updated soon (I'm not going to bother the
gnu.org guys again until 2.0 final is released).

Excerpts from the NEWS file are given below.  This should quash the
few known 2.0rc2 buglets.  Of course the on-line documentation is
available at:

    http://mailman.sourceforge.net

New goal for 2.0 final: Wed 22-Nov-2000

Enjoy,
-Barry

2.0 release candidate 3 (16-Nov-2000)

    - By popular demand, Reply-To: munging policy is now to always
      override any Reply-To: header in the original message, if
      reply_goes_to_list is set to "This list" or "Explicit Address"

    - bin/newlist given -q/--quiet flag instead of the <immediate>
      positional argument

    - Hopefully last fix to DEFAULT_URL not ending in a slash
      sensitivity

[ANNOUNCE] Mailman 2.0

I'm please to announce the 2.0 final release of Mailman, the GNU
Mailing List Manager.  Mailman is released under the GNU General
Public License (GPL).

Mailman is software to help manage electronic mail discussion lists,
much like Majordomo or Smartmail.  Mailman gives each mailing list a
unique web page and allows users to subscribe, unsubscribe, and change
their account options over the web.  Even the list manager can
administer his or her list entirely via the web.  Mailman has most of
the features that people want in a mailing list management system,
including built-in archiving, mail-to-news gateways, spam filters,
bounce detection, digest delivery, and so on.

Mailman is compatible with most web servers, web browsers, and mail
servers.  It should run on any Unix-like operating system.  Mailman
requires Python 1.5.2 or better.  To install Mailman from source, you
will need a C compiler.

For more information on Mailman, please see the following mirrors:

    http://www.list.org
    http://mailman.sourceforge.net
    http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/mailman.html

(the latter is not yet up to date)

There are email lists (managed by Mailman, of course!) for both
Mailman users and developers.  See the web sites above for details.

My thanks to everybody who has helped with this release, especially
