Edit the mailing list file and put your address at the bottom, unless
it's presorting and delivering to hub first, then use an external
address. The sendmail/majordomo combination is one of the contributing
factors to me dumping both altogether a number of years ago.

2) maintain a running list of porting problems. I've seen patches
submitted, and some patches applied, but *no* complete reports of "OK,
it works now" afterwards (I may be overstating this a bit, but you get
my point ;). But that contributes to...

Practically all of the currently-outstanding reports have to do with
updating regress test expected results. I made some progress on that
last night but there are more to do. Our standards seem to be higher
now than they used to be --- people are expecting all the tests to
pass with no noise. So far, I don't think that anyone has reported
regress test failures that actually suggest a porting problem.

We do have a major problem with portability of plperl. I have yet
to build a working version of it at all; in fact I haven't heard
confirmation that it works from *anyone* other than the author.
Has anyone else tried to use it?

Yes, I am inclined to disable the build for 7.0 final unless it works.
