Subject	--)> Taking a Project Public

> For the past month, I have been writing a program to read E-mail that's
> very similar to Sylpheed, except writing in Python.  The slowest part has
> been learning ins and outs of PyGTK.  Now that I may have a job soon, I'd
> like to make the project a public and GPL'd.  I'd appreciate tips on the
> best way to do this.
> 
> I thought about Sourceforge (sf.net), but they use CVS and their
> mailinglist tend to be very spammy.  I'd like to use subversion instead,
> but I've had very little experience with it or CVS.
> 
> I also need a name.  I'm currently using pymail, but a google search
> turned several other uses of that name (one was an alternate version of
> the Unix mail program written in python, and the sending part at that).
> Name suggestions are welcome.
> 
> The program can read the folder structure and messages (two TreeViews),
> but does not yet display messages or allow message composing.  I started
> this project because the Python Standard Library supports most of the
> stuff that Sylpheed has to code itself.
> 
> A screen view of pymail is at:

> Thanks in advnace for any help.

> FYI - Sylpheed and Pymail use the MH mailbox format, which is one message
> per file, a folder is a directory of message files.
