(The network effec= ts around Django became too compelling to ignore.) Quixote has served us very well over the years, and I'm grateful to the dev= elopers for all of their work.

No, I just didn't feel the mailing list was providing enough value given the very small amount of traffic. I honestly didn't expect any response from my shutdown notice email, except maybe from you Robert. Since obviously there are still a number of people reading the list, I'm going to renew the domain. Quixote is definitely not defunct. The company I now work for depends on it for their web application. We are starting a new, clean slate application and we have decided to stick with Quixote. Keeping Quixote working is not a huge effort as it is pretty small.
