[mlmmj] Call for feature requests related to list texts

[Ben Schmidt]

Hi, everybody,

I hope the recent spate of emails hasn't overwhelmed you all!

In the next couple of months I'm planning to prepare a 1.2.18 release candidate.

Since some of the changes that have already gone through will require list texts 
to be updated and translated, I want to take the opportunity to rework all the 
list texts and make them as good as possible before asking people to translate them.

I also want to minimise the number of times they need to be translated, though, so 
I would like to make other changes that affect list texts before doing this 
rewriting and translation work.

So, what are the features people would like? These could be features to do with 
list texts themselves (e.g. like adding the ability to add arbitrary headers to 
list texts that was recently implemented), or features that simply affect list 
texts (e.g. the recent request to be able to reject a held message). Add your 
requests to the bug tracker, or send an email to the list (I suggest starting a 
new thread rather than replying to this mail).

Looking forward to hearing from you,

Ben.

As said, we over at The Document Foundation are happy to help, as we
are using mlmmj and wanted to translate the list texts anyways. If
you've reached a stable state in English, I'm happy to circulate them
and have a look, and we can help you in localising.

Thanks for all the good work!
Florian
