To whom (besides this list) have you communicated the problem, and with what results?
Remember that python.org is run by volunteers, but they are mostly highly capable volunteers. This is probably just a change situation that wasn't anticipated in the design (we all make mistakes). A simple change of email address could probably be achieved by tweaking the data for one or two individuals, and an automated solution should clearly be added as volumes build up. For now, how about a link that causes someone to receive email? I'd be surprised if this couldn't be used to handle low-volume changes with adequate security. regards Steve -- Steve Holden +44 150 684 7255 +1 800 494 3119 Holden Web LLC/Ltd http://www.holdenweb.com Skype: holdenweb http://holdenweb.blogspot.com Recent Ramblings http://del.icio.us/steve.holden -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
