Stephen, thank you for taking the time to respond. Although I would have preferred you respond to the questions that I asked, I believe I can now see why you don't want to. Your "Dave Matthews" subthread sent me down a youtube rabbit's hole of Barry's videos and links. TBH, I can see why bringing those to the surface aren't favorable. Barry's roadmap for Python2 -> Python3 seems to counter the narrative that MM2 is ill- advised to be ported to Python3 (btw, that was posted in Jan of this year). > Until there are "I'll do it" hands up, no > port to Python 3 that is faithful to current Mailman 2 is viable. That is a piece of a much bigger puzzle. How are we to attract interest in coding for MM2 when (omg wow) for the past 10+ years key people have been drumming a beat that MM2 is dead. > Pushing it just serves to annoy those who are currently doing work for > Mailman that they care more about. I get that, but others may care more about MM2, you yourself have even somewhat begrudgingly acknowledged this. > By contrast, your question about security fixes was an entirely > appropriate clarification, and #ThankYouForPersisting on that > subthread. #Mailman3MightBeTheNewNewCoke :-) -Jim P. ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
