Sympa 2.2beta et divers

[Aumont - Comite Reseaux des Universites <adresse@cachée>]

Here is version beta 2.2 ; jump to the RELEASE NOTE.

Voici la version 2.2beta de sympa avec 

 - quelques corrections de bugs, 
 - commande unsubscribe <LIST> [adresse]  (accepte un email en argument)
 - parametre send privateoreditorkey
 - etc

Grosses évolutions justifiant une version 2.

 - possibilité de stocker les listes d'abonnés dans un SGBD
   (indispensable pour les développements de WWSympa).
 - possibilité d'extraire une liste d'abonné d'un SGBD externe ou d'un
   annuaire LDAP
 - licence GPL ou artistic au choix.

La doc n'est pas mise à jour (c'est du beta :-), mais les «samples» et
le fichier README du répertoire script ainsi que la release note sont
déjà pas mal. Cette version est en exploitation avec nos plus grosses
listes en mode  "user_data_source database" 


La liste sympa-fr est renommée sympa-l et devient bi-lingue.

RELEASE NOTE
--------------
   
      New features :
    
        Subscriber list can be stored in a Database (Mysql). The
        Database parameters (db_type, db_name, db_host, db_user
        and db_passwd) have been added to sympa.conf.

        Sympa is able to dynamically load the subscriber list from
        an external datasource (DBM or LDAP). This can be specified
        in the list config. file whithin a include_sql_query or
        include_ldap_query paragraph. (not yet documented but
        easy to confugure using config samples).

        List parameter user_data_source specifies what kind of
        datasource the list use for the user database. Possible
        values are file, database or include.
  
        user command unsubscribe now accept optionaly a email as
        second parameter. Sample : "unsubscribe * adresse@cachée"
        if email is different from sender ask md5 authentification.
        
        definition of privateoreditorkey as a value the paramer send.

        New entry listmaster in sympa.conf to allow a site administrator
        to manage lists.

      Changes :

        WHICH command's result doesn't contain lists configuration
        info anymore. It now returns ownership and "editorship"
        information. 

        Total of subscribers has been added to stats file.

      Bug fixes :
        
        Content-transfer-encoding fixed for key moderation 
        messages (reported by Andre Lagadec).

        digest messages (reported by Raymond Bourges).
