I didn't know who was on address@hidden  I still don't know
who is there, other than you and Ian.

No worries, I didn't send it to iank directly.

I agree.  That was faster than I would expect we ought to be able to
do, in general.  It looks like Colby had no reason to complain.

I do wonder why he thought his message was delayed, since it wasn't
delayed by waiting for the moderator -- but maybe he got confused.

I am surprised.  I think that 20 years ago it was generally full of flames.

Perhaps nowadays people don't usually think of criticizing us
using a mailing list.

Anyway, given that it is working, I am not complaining about the lack
of flames there.
