Display type: cgthree
What were you trying to do?
Use moira to update some mailing lists that I control.
What's wrong:
Moira is supplying "default" answers to some of the questions
it asks, before the user gets a chance to supply their own answer.
(Oddly, after aborting the attempted changes with ^C, I have
to type "quit" twice at the Command prompt before I quit
Moira.)
Here's an edited screen dump. The thing I care most about
is that I didn't get a chance to tell moira whether the list
I'm changing is public or private.

$ moira -nomenu

What should have happened:
I should have been able to specify whether the list was
public, and whether it was a maillist.
