It is savannah's mail server, not ours :)

I can't code, but I review most modifications. I look at all patches
before they are applied, and I beta test all new versions, after the patches
have been applied. If there are bugs, I report them, often with a way
to solve them. Maybe another solution, instead of having Pango release
new non-official versions, would be to have him in the developpers of
the project, so that he can directly work on the CVS. 

Maybe you experienced a bad behavior with 2.01, but most of it has
been already tested and used for one week, except the patches applied
on monday.

The cost of the removal has also been increased when the black_list
port and ips patch has been applied. I will have a look at where
exactly is the time spent and how to solve this problem.
