Because the admin directory is no longer included, the www directory isn't

either, and that's where the generated docs used to live. So now, make this directory include the generated docs, removing the old IPC7 and LISA-98 directories, and the .tex source files. These latter are moved to the admin repository.

+15.3 MacOSX issues</a>
+</h2>
+
+<p>
+Many people run Mailman on MacOSX.  Here are some pointers that have been
+collected on getting Mailman to run on MacOSX.
+
+<p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>Jaguar (MacOSX 10.2) comes with Python 2.2.  While this isn't the very
+      latest stable version of Python, it ought to be sufficient to run
+      Mailman 2.1.
+
+<p>
+</li>
+<li>David B. O'Donnell has a web page describing his configuration of
+      Mailman 2.0.13 and Postfix on MacOSX Server.
+
+<p>
+<a class="url" href="http://www.afp548.com/Articles/mail/python-mailman.html">http://www.afp548.com/Articles/mail/python-mailman.html</a>
+<p>
+</li>
+<li>Kathleen Webb posted her experiences in getting Mailman running on
+      Jaguar using Sendmail.
+
+<p>
+<a class="url" href="http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2002-October/022944.html">http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2002-October/022944.html</a>
+<p>
+</li>
+<li>Panther server (MacOSX 10.3) comes with Mailman; Your operating system
+      should contain documentation that will help you, and Apple has a tech
+      document about a problem you might encounter running Mailman on Mac OS X
+      Server 10.3:
+
+<p>
+<a class="url" href="http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107889">http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107889</a>
+</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>
+Terry Allen provides the following detailed instructions on running Mailman on
+the 'client' version of OSX, or in earlier versions of OSX:
+
+<p>
+Mac OSX 10.3 and onwards has the basics for a successful Mailman installation.
+Users of earlier versions of Mac OSX contains Sendmail and those users should
+look at the Sendmail installation section for tips.  You should follow the
+basic installation steps as described earlier in this manual, substituting as
+appropriate, the steps outlined in this section.
+
+<p>
+By default, Mac OSX 10.3 'client' version does not have a fully functional
+version of Postfix.  Setting up a working MTA such as Postfix is beyond the
+scope of this guide and you should refer to <a class="url" href="http://www.postfix.org">http://www.postfix.org</a> for
+tips on getting Postfix running.  An easy way to set Postfix up is to install
+and run Postfix Enabler, a stand-alone tool for configuring Postfix on Mac
+OSX, available from 
+<a class="url" href="http://www.roadstead.com/weblog/Tutorials/PostfixEnabler.html">http://www.roadstead.com/weblog/Tutorials/PostfixEnabler.html</a>.
+
+<p>
+Likewise, Mac OSX 'client' version from 10.1 onwards includes a working Apache
+webserver.  This is switched on using the System Preferences control panel
+under the 'Sharing tab'.  A useful tool for configuring the Apache on Mac OSX
+is Webmin, which can be obtained from
+<a class="url" href="http://www.webmin.com">http://www.webmin.com</a>.
+
+<p>
+Webmin can also perform configuration for other system tasks, including
+Postfix, adding jobs to your crontab, adding user and groups, plus adding
+startup and shutdown jobs.
+
+<p>
+In a stock installation of OSX, the requirement for Mailman is to have Python
+installed.  Python is not installed by default, so it is advised that you
+install the developer's tools package, which may have been provided with your
+system.  It can also be downloaded from the Apple developer site at
+<a class="url" href="http://connect.apple.com">http://connect.apple.com</a>.  Not only is the developer tools package an
+essential requirement for installing Mailman, but it will come in handy at a
+later date should you need other tools.  The developer's tools are also know
+by the name XCode tools.
+
+<p>
+As a minimum, the Python version should be 2.2, but 2.3 is recommended.
+
+<p>
+If you wish to add a user and group using the command line in OSX instead of
+via Webmin or another GUI interface, open your terminal application and follow
+the commands as indicated below - do not type the comments following the
+"<tt class="samp">#</tt>" since they are just notes:
+
+<p>
+<div class="verbatim"><pre>
+sudo tcsh
+niutil -create / /users/mailman
+niutil -createprop / /users/mailman name mailman
+# Note that xxx is a free user ID number on your system
+niutil -createprop / /users/mailman uid xxx
+niutil -createprop / /users/mailman home /usr/local/mailman
+mkdir -p /usr/local/mailman
+niutil -createprop / /users/mailman shell /bin/tcsh
+passwd mailman
+# To prevent malicious hacking, supply a secure password here
+niutil -create / /groups/mailman
+niutil -createprop / /groups/mailman name mailman
+# Note that xxx is a free group ID number on your system
+niutil -createprop / /groups/mailman gid xxx
+niutil -createprop / /groups/mailman passwd '*'
+niutil -createprop / /groups/mailman users 'mailman'
+chown mailman:mailman /usr/local/mailman
+cd /usr/local/mailman
+chmod a+rx,g+ws .
+exit
+su mailman
+</pre></div>
+
+<p>
+For setting up Apache on OSX to handle Mailman, the steps are almost identical
+and the configuration file on a stock Mac OSX Client version is stored in the
+nearly standard location of <span class="file">/etc/httpd/httpd.conf</span>.
+
+<p>
+The <a class="ulink" href="http://www.afp548.com"
+  >AFP548.com</a> site has a time-saving automated startup item creator for
+Mailman, which can be found at 
+<a class="url" href="http://www.afp548.com/Software/MailmanStartup.tar.gz">http://www.afp548.com/Software/MailmanStartup.tar.gz</a>
+<p>
+To install it, copy it into your <span class="file">/Library/StartupItems</span> directory. As
+the root or superuser, from the terminal, enter the following:
+
+<p>
+<div class="verbatim"><pre>
+gunzip MailmanStartup.tar.gz
+tar xvf MailmanStartup.tar
+</pre></div>
+
+<p>
+It will create the startup item for you so that when you reboot, Mailman will
+start up.
