Bug fixes and other patches
+ - Because of privacy concerns with the 2.2 backport adding real name to
+ list rosters, this is controlled by a new ROSTER_DISPLAY_REALNAME
+ setting that defaults to No. You may wish to set this to Yes in
+ mm_cfg.py.

- Organization: headers are now unconditionally removed from posts to
anonymous lists. Regexps in ANONYMOUS_LIST_KEEP_HEADERS weren't kept
if the regexp included the trailing ':'. This is fixed too.
