I don't do much in docs-land (nothing outside of marketing+docs-lands), but I can clean out a mailing list queue once a week, or more often if necessary. I've seen lots of other sub-projects send little tidbits here and there and it would be unfortunate for this to be inhibited by requiring someone sign up for Yet Another Mailing List. I could probably also pick up any others if you need me to, Paul. Ryan -- Ryan Rix == http://hackersramblings.wordpress.com | http://rix.si/ ==
