I'd really love something to sit on top of (or behind) Mailman that would give me: Authenticated file storage Group calendar Group database Yes, I know. "Mailman is not YahooGroups." However, I get a *lot* of requests for this stuff. For now, I use an .htaccess file with a corresponding htpasswd file which pulls the logins/passwords out of the Mailman list membership. It requires manual massaging (like if someone wanted a file deleted, for instance), so it's not exactly an ideal situation, but... there's nothing else I've seen/heard of for Mailman that does similar functionality. When 3.0 comes out, I know that is going to break the scripts I use (from http://wiki.list.org/display/DOC/Setting+up+Web+access+using+MM+list+passwords+-+for+Apache).. or at least that's what I recall from hearing discussions of changes in 3.0... if I'm wrong, I'm happy to admit it! But it would *seriously* be awesome if Mailman could have, I dunno, "plugins" for the lack of a better word, where you *could* extend Mailman into more of a YG arena if you choose to. Or, has someone else out there managed to come up with some kind of frontend/backend/addon for MM that lets you have web content only for list-members?
