That highlights my frustration with the new definitions for the mailing
lists. I am a hacker/developer and really only ask a question when I
need a little help hacking on the code. As you can see, my question led
me to submit the patched solution in the same email thread. The changed
definitions "keep the development out of the endless support threads on
dev_AT_ and development more enjoyable." My question was a development
question, not a support question, and therefore was more appropriately
discussed on hackers_AT_. Why "support" is discussed on "dev[elopment]" and
not on a new support_AT_ list is still beyond me, but I'll get over it as
soon as Marc shows up on hackers_AT_. :-)

Thanks! -Ross
