It seems to me the original question was how can I reply to a posted message.
I'm new here and see that while there are replies to several messages, many times, like with this note, the issue is brought up as if it is new. I don't know how to do a reply, can someone tell me how? This note was sent to: python-list@python.org with the subject copied from an earlier note. No need to discuss the politics of the choice.
