For anyone interested in majordomo on NT, I have 1.93 more or less 
working on 4.0 Beta2 (should probably work on 3.51 or 4.0 RC2 as well).

It's very much a hack (in the tidyness/portability of coding rather than 
functionality sense).  I needed majordomo on NT right now, and haven't 
have the time to get involved in the 1.94 efforts.  So I've done a quick 
and dirty "get it going" hack on 1.93, which I'll be using until 1.94 is 
released.  If it is still necessary, I'll then do a proper job of 
porting 19.4 and submit the changes to majordomo-workers, to do with as 
they see fit.

Anyway.  Anyone interested in 1.93 on NT can subscribe to majordomo-nt 
(in the usual way) at majordomo@cerebus.garply.com.  Policy is 'auto', 
so you can specify whatever address you want or not specify any.

Cerebus is my NT machine, which is connected over a 28.8 dialup 
(theoretically 24 hours a day), then through a busy and somewhat flakey 
ISDN line, so "expect delays".  It's also the NT version of majordomo 
(obviously), so it'll probably be broken sometimes as I introduce bugs 
whilst trying to fix bugs!

But you should be able to get subscribed.  If you don't get a welcome 
message within a reasonable time, mail me!  Details of where to get 
1.93NT and what to do with it will be disseminated on majordomo-nt, 
rather than majordomo-users.

BTW, it's only taken about 4 days to get it running, and a lot of that 
has been fighting with sendmail, bash, perl and NT (I've only been using 
any kind of Windoze for about a month) rather than majordomo.  Perl and 
Brent Chapman rool.
