webbased solutions are not good equivalent to mailing list. The latter are much more flexible.
So I also would rather see mailing list migration to someting newer than Mailman 2 than move to a webbased solution

Hi,

I feel the same as Risker and think we should instead investigate how to upgrade our mailing lists to Mailman 3.

Regards, M.

Hi Quim -

Perhaps it would be helpful if you were to identify what types of lists are suitable for mirroring, and what happens when they are mirrored, because that is not clear from your post.  (And no, I don't want to have to have *another* software experience just to ask these questions.)

For example:
  • Are all mirrored lists publicly accessible and viewable?  Is there a way to control even read-only access?
  • Are private mailing lists suitable for Discourse?
  • Is everything archived? If so, how, and who controls them?
  • Can archives be modified, and if so, by whom?
  • How does editing/responding to mailing list posts on the Discourse mirror get reflected in the main mailing list?
  • Can lists have individual guidelines that are different from the "common" ones?  
I will note that all of the lists I administer are *not* public lists, and several are non-archiving.  They each have different guidelines as to what should and should not be included and/or discussed on them.

Hi, I have just published a proposal to start testing mailing list mirroring and emulation at the Discourse instance we have at Wikimedia Space.

If you are interested in discussing and exploring potential post-Mailman scenarios, join in.

Check the proposal at https://discuss-space.wmflabs.org/t/testing-the-path-from-mailing-lists-to-wikimedia-space/1934. Feedback is welcome there or here.  :)  

If you want to propose a mailing list to mirror or you are personally interested in testing mailing list emulation, let's talk.
