Is there anything I can do to help with these? If there’s a task list maybe I can work out what I could do.

So we went from "Python3 compatibility is not on the blocker list for Mailman 3.0" to "Mailman 3.0 will only work on Python 3". That's quite a change. This means I must now port HyperKitty and Kittystore to Python3, check that we don't use Py2-only libraries, etc. And mailman.client must be ported too, since it does import stuff from mailman for testing purposes. I think Postorious is safe, but that must be verified (I believe it imports the testing framework from mailman.client and thus must be ported too). And I thought the 3.0 release was almost there. I must say this is rather discouraging.
