/me waves :-)

Because whimsy-vm is within the ASF's infrastructure, there is no need
for a user and password to send mail.  There also shouldn't be a need
to prompt for a month?

If you wouldn't mind, what I would like to do is to integrate this
with Whimsy's library (which means recoding in Ruby, a language very
much like Python).  What that would mean is that things like the email
list override would be available to all of Whimsy's applications, and
not be locked into this one.  It also will make this script even
smaller.
