 Hello Mailman Developers,
  Sorry in advance if this is not the right place for my query.
 I wanted to start contributing to Mailman-Development, and wanted a little
 head start for that. I would love to get any sort of guidance in this
 respect. I am a second year IT student with knowledge of c, c++, and trying
 my hands on web development.

Welcome!  This is the right place to ask.

You probably will not find C and C++ very helpful in learning web
development ... especially not Python.  You should start with the
Python tutorial (my own preference for my students is the Python 3
tutorial at

http://docs.python.org/py3k/tutorial/index.html

but you might want to start with Python 2 at

http://docs.python.org/tutorial/index.html

for web development, since many libraries are only partly ported to
Python 3 at this point).

Then you should install the Bazaar VCS for your platform

http://bazaar.canonical.com/

do bzr help launchpad to learn how to set up your ids for Launchpad,
where Mailman's code repository is hosted, and get the most recent
code for Mailman 3 from

lp:mailman

Then come back here, browse the mailman-developers archives, and ask questions!

Steve
