Heh, yeah! :^)  The Tux4Kids.net ones just stopped working.

The admin system still works, and I made sure I wasn't "nomail"'d again,
then I emailed you to ask what's up, but didn't get a response, so I figured
you were super-busy.

Shin-Ichi ended up sending me a personal email with some comments he had
tried to send to tuxpaint-dev as well, so I figured it wasn't me.

I didn't want to harass you about it (though I did consider whois'ing
and calling you on the phone again ;^) ), and figured moving them would just
take one more thing (4 more things?) off of your plate.  It's kind of what
SF.net is there for, anyway ;^)

Also, one thing I missed recently was integrated archives, so that was
another reason I decided to just go ahead and switch. :^)

I've got this list set up as 'reply-to', so maybe they changed something
since you last looked? :)

Note: For me, it's simple enough to set my Mutt up so that [R]eply does
[L]ist-reply by default for these lists, so if we're in the minority,
I'd be willing to consider changing the list settings to no-munging.
(I do NOT want a big flamewar over it, though... I see those almost monthly
on one or another list I'm on! :^) )


So, hopefully, no hard feelings Sam! :^)
