We don't have starttag stoptag routines in native Sympa parser ; I think 
we'll wait for
TT2 shift to fix this problem.

We're not willing to have too many CVS branches because it might be a hard 
job to merge
them later on. Currently we only have 2 branches : the MAIN one (development) 
and a stable
one (sympa-3_4-branch). I suppose it would be usefull for separating TT2 
changes from other
?summer developments?...
Any other point of views on this ?
