[MPICH] Bug control

[Robin Boerdijk]

Hi Rob,

A couple of questions about the mpich2-maint mailing list:

1. Do I need to be subscribed to be able to post?

2. Is it archived somewhere so that I can see which bugs have already
been reported?

Best regards,

Robin Boerdijk

P.S. Don't forget to CC the mailing list, it messes up my e-mail
filters ;-)
