Fascinating, I don't think I've ever seen an XML field! Do you remember which network that was for?

Good point. I’m planning on implementing a static (always-enabled) toolbar for mobile devices — hopefully that’ll make it better.

http://www.keyboardco.com/ sells the Filco Convertible 2 [0] and a few other Filco keyboards - they also ship internationally. Bought from them before, would definitely do it again.

Hi! Doppins is free for open-source (and currently also private) projects, but I get your point. What I like about using Doppins on my own projects is that I don't have to be actively developing a project for it to be useful - as long as a project has enough tests to make it safe to merge pull requests that pass continuous integration you can stay up to date on security updates and similar quite easily.
Re:A Better Pip Workflow on Wednesday March 02, 2016 @12:34PM (#11211478)
We built Doppins (https://doppins.com) to be able to use pinned PyPI dependencies and/or ranges and still keep them up-to-date continuously. Still another tool, but it's quite quick to enable on a repository and doesn't require any maintenance afterwards.

A lot of mailing lists require you to send plain text emails, with the Linux Kernel being an example.

I think minifiers use the former because it's shorter, and thus requires less space.
