I'd actually do that with:
nacho create-list mambo gabor@xxxx.xxx.xx
nacho set-plugins mambo sub
Which is to say set the subscribe queue to an empty one. Both ways you
also have to not run the web interface, or maybe we just need a new
property of Siesta::List that indicates that only the owner can add members.
I do like the idea of making nacho more gnuish, and certainly I've
wanted to take it out back and hose it down to remove all the C<shift ||
die "";> crud. I'd like to replace it with somthing more generic which
could also output the usage info rather than just "you didn't fill this
slot".
This springs to mind:
$commands{'create-list} = {
arguments => \@spec, # some getops config, or something
action => sub { my %args = @_; ... },
};
But I'm hoping that someone else can take that or something similar and
produce a patch - I don't have much month left and this doesn't seem
terribly fun.
