Unofficial Ubuntu Faq?

[Ben Edwards]

I know all this.  I have mailman and occasionally set up lists - it
takes around 15 minutes and I ant an expert.  I also think that
documentation is very important and a list is a big not in
acknowledging that.  But the real reason I am slightly put out is that
someone said one would be set up - if they said we are to busy I would
be cool with that - I just got my hopes up.

Anyway enough sear about that - it'll be alright on the nite ;)
