[I've changed the CC's to zmailman and mailman-developers, leaving
zope-dev out of this for now. -BAW]
There's been a lot of traffic about this over the weekend, so my
responses may be a bit fractured. Let me start with two things:
first, way cool Stephan! Thanks for putting together this list and
doing the prototyping.
Second, for now, let's talk about Mailman 2.1 and beyond. What would
be neat is if a Mailman3 played nicely with a Zope3. Given where each
project is headed, I think that's entirely doable.

Nope, there are no UML diagrams, or any internals documentation except
for the source. And even that has gone through a lot of changes for
MM2.1, hopefully to make things cleaner, and to provide interfaces in
many cases (although not everywhere).

All but the last have long been goals of mine. Not to /require/ Zope
for Mailman, but to enable an easy integration of them. I think MM2.1
should make things easier, because of the membership API and other
APIs.
More to follow...
