[Systers-dev] GSoC Bug Fixes and Mailman setup in Ubuntu 9.10

[Anna Granudd]

Hi again,
I'm sorry, I probably was a bit unclear about when to use the migrate
script. It is only needed for mailing lists created with Systers' code as it
looked like before the summer of 2009. If you have such old lists and want
to update to the latest Systers' code, you'll need to run the script over
these old lists. It does not help running the script if you have lists
created with the normal Mailman without the Systers' changes, it was only
made to migrate (Systers' code) lists from before summer of 2009. If you
have lists created with the normal Mailman, you'll need to recreate these
lists. Also, if you install the system now you do not need the script
(because the code already sets the attributes that were missing in the
versions before last summer).
I will remove the added part from the installation wiki since the script is
not needed for recently installed code (such as the one you just installed
if you followed the steps in the wiki) and I don't want to confuse people.
If you have other questions about the script - please ask me.

Thanks,
Anna
