I'm sorry, but what does this mean?

Does this mean that any Mailman task unfinished in previous seasons goes to
a GSoC graveyard where it sits forever, effectively blocking any other
effort in this direction?

It sounds awful.

I hope Mailman is a valuable product in its own right, not just a training
toy for GSoC students (I don't have anything against GSoC in general,
though). The most interesting ideas collected for GSoC should be
implemented, not left buried in the GSoC archives.

We already had this talk before:

and we still don't have the "List Configuration Tool" available after 3
years, so I suppose I have the right to raise this issue...

Sincerely,
Danil Smirnov
