Though it's pine, we're not modern enough to > have alpine. BTW it seems that a few people misunderstood my comments. Just to clarify: I am happy if a lot of non-technical people use Thunderbird. I mean, I am happy for them. If it is too complicated for Thunderbird to accomodate the workflow required on our mailing list, however, I will have to recommend another tool to the people who want to contribute to Git. I would not recommend emacs to a vim user, either. Or vice versa. In other words: use the right tool. Or, as somebody put it at the GitTogether: to a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
