<p>
  The mailing list has been really active.  There is definitely a
  BIG correlation between mailing list activity and my motivation
  towards fixing things.  Some of the things Eugene has said have
  irked me, but in general he's providing a lot of solid observations
  which (I think) have led to some really great changes.

  In the last few weeks, we've:
</p>
<ul>
  <li>fixed a couple of bugs
  <li>optimized out the get_engine() silliness
  <li>wheedled down the managers (there's still some more to do)
  <li>optimized the get_current_session() routine
  <li>optimized the filter_mapper case of hook spamming
  <li>made some really awesome changes to the python_cmd that make
      it far more usable
</ul>
<p>
  All good stuff none of which would have happened with a quiet
  mailing list.
