As an analogy, it reminds me of a time when I had to look after a class of school kids... They were all bored out their minds, and generally having a boring time. I suggested that we play a game on the whiteboard or something, and was met with a stony wall of apathy. I couldn't come up with any decent suggestions, as I didn't know what the kids wanted, yet when they were asked what they wanted, they didn't seem to give a toss and would rather remain bored and lifeless.
I have a strong feeling of deja vu here.
Regards
Kyle

Why not ask the list?' on IRC, there has been SFA response from anyone else. Why bother now? I was inclined to help, but since it would appear that noone can even be arsed to even reply to an email with one word, I'm retracting the suggestion.

Since the mailing list is already replicated through gmane, it has been suggested that a NNTP to Web client is implemented on the scotlug site, possibly allowing two-way communciation to the list from the site.
