Excellent!  Do check wnpp to make sure there's not already an ITP for Mailman
3.  Note too that there is already a Mailman 2 package, so you might want to
contact the pkg-mailman-hack...@lists.alioth.debian.org mailing list.

Yes, those are a good start.  I'm in the "separate source packages" camp for
each component.  Since each upstream does separate tarball releases, separate
source packages make the most sense, IMHO.  Definitely for core and client.
You'll probably want to use 'mailman3-' as a prefix for the source packages,
e.g. mailman3-core, mailman3-client, etc.

You'll probably want to talk to some Debian Django developers on the best way
to package Postorius and HK.

mailman-suite-doc doesn't have anything in it right now.
