Hey, I just recently joined the Gnome Moderator Team[1] which handles moderation requests for all of the Gnome Projects mailing lists. As most of you know, we use mailman to manage this, which is written in python.
We have had a nagging issue for sometime now, where each list that needs an e-mail approved or denied must be visited and handled individually. Not a big deal until a spammer hits every gnome mailing list with a message that must be binned, and we are forced to login to the same page and click the same 3 buttons a hundred times. A 'unified moderation panel' has long been a wish of ours, but no one on the team is experienced enough to hack the admindb.py CGI to show _all_ messages pending moderation in one page. I know this is a primarly python based project and was looking to see if anyone was interested in such a project. Obviously if no one has the time or experience necessary for such a hack, that's fine, but from my initial skim over the code, it seems to be doable with a simple iteration over all the available list's. However, my initial attempts at python didn't go so well. Regardless, if anyone is interested, please let me know. If you cannot (or don't wish to) install mailman on your own machine, I can provide you with limited ssh access to one of my boxes with a mailman install to test and fiddle. *1-http://live.gnome.org/ModeratorTeam -- Cheers, Kevin Kubasik http://blog.kubasik.net
