Exactly, and pgsql-www is the wrong goddam list! I've told you over
and over again. pgsql-www is the list that the group leaders use to
collaborate. Over and over again we told you to join pgsql-www-main,
which is an invitation only list for development of the soon to be
released portal.

I'm the one that approves or denies the subscriptions to BOTH of those
lists and the first time I denied you I sent you a note telling you
not only why I denied it, but which list you were SUPPOSED to join.
