Hi Chris,


I've had 2 emails, none of them with my Zope mailing-list subscription email
address. So...

Anyaway - sure DC should have been more careful about posting such a message.
Maybe they should have advertise people (ie in the mailing list or news item)
that they'd be sending a survey query.

But, never mind. I did answer the survey.
