Still a question or two about the mailing list.

It is better to ask questions

That's Nabble.

That password is needed if you wish to alter your interactions with the
mailing list software "Mailman". For example, receive the emails to
your email account, either singly or in batches.

You can safely click "do not show". It's a reminder, that's all.

If you aren't a subscriber to the list, your posts wait for me to
decide. 
A certain amount of spam gets submitted through the Nabble interface.
Others, like recent posts in Afrikaans, didn't get approved because I
can't read Afrikaans and don't know if it is OK or not. Basically, any
foreign language posts will be rejected, but I may reply separately
where I can read enough of the post to determine that it has
appropriate content.
