Well, the whole idea to switch came up this time for just that reason -
just a different kind of lazy that time.
I'm more concerned that we seem to be hitting a *lot* of bugs in mj2
that nobody else has seen, which tells me that not a lot of people are
using it. The mj2 stuff is obviously a lot less active than mailman. For
example, the only webpage I can fnid about it hasn't been updated in 7
years.
But obviously it *is* being maintained in some way, since Marc is in
contact with their people. But the question is how much...
