Exim on the other hand is on my personal list.) I'd very much love to have Exim and Sendmail support. If you're an expert in one of those MTAs, please help us by contributing code and documentation for integrating them. Based on the Postfix integration, I suspect it will be mostly documentation and integration with alias creation. Integration is LMTP from MTA->MM3 and SMTP from MM3->MTA so I think there's probably little or nothing that has to happen at that level, except document how to set up your MTA to work properly. The most complicated part of the Postfix integration is making sure the aliases are set up correct so that when new mailing lists are added to MM3, the MTA recognizes them. That may require a bit of code, but I think the APIs are well documented. I'd also like to see better PostgreSQL and or MySQL-family integration. SQLite is the default, and we have PostgreSQL support already, although a few tests fail with PG. I would welcome PG fixes, and additional support for any database that Storm supports. (Note that at some point we may ditch Storm for SQLAlchemy, but I don't think that will majorly affect the set of FLOSS supported databases). -Barry signature.asc Description: PGP signature ___ Mailman-Developers mailing list Mailman-Developers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-developers%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-developers/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9

Several months ago, I had a lot of discussions with someone who is using the core in their own project. I don't believe that work is public, so I'm not going to name the user, but it's different than the one Terri mentioned. -Barry ___ Mailman-Developers mailing list Mailman-Developers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-developers%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-developers/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9

I'll spend some time pouring over that page w.r.t. the core, updating it, removing old to-do items, and filling in some details with my notes and tracker bugs.

Postorius had a bug from someone running a 2000-person local music list on Mailman 3, so there's at least one fairly significant deployment that I know of. The thing that usually stops people from trying the Mailman 3 suite out is that we have no upgrade path from mailman 2 to mailman 3 at the moment. I believe there's a conversion script for archives, but you'd have to write your own script to migrate users and list settings.

Barry, Aurelian, maybe you could > populate the Mailman and Hyperkitty lists? Good idea! The only thing I can think of offhand for core is Exim support. (Sendmail support, I suppose, but nobody I know uses Sendmail, and I Sendmail support would be nice. can't do it. Exim on the other hand is on my personal list.) We should contact the GSoC students and ask them for suggestions. Of course, whether they are actually TODOs is to be decided by project leads. Do we have an RFE page that random wiki users could be allowed to add to? ___ Mailman-Developers mailing list Mailman-Developers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-developers%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-developers/cnulk%40scu.edu Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 ___ Mailman-Developers mailing list Mailman-Developers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-developers%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-developers/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9

The list server is in beta, when combined with Postfix as the MTA. Interfaces to other MTAs have not yet been created yet. The archiver and the web interface are at best early beta, but there are running prototypes. You can substitute a 3rd party service like mail-archive.com if that is satisfactory. The User model remains somewhat incomplete. By that I mean that we don't have a successful integration of Mailman users with "enterprise" user databases. The linkage seems a bit ad hoc in the prototypes that GSoC students are working on. There are no deployments I know of, although Barry may.

Re: [Mailman-Developers] Mailman 3.0 todo list
Hi, I was just about to ask about the status of Mailman 3. What I'm looking for is some idea of what it can do already. For example, it has all its features but needs to be administered from the command line, or it's missing important feature X, or it has everything but some switches can't be adjusted easily yet. The reason why I'm asking is that I'm in need of some Mm3 features and was wondering if it was ready for limited deployment, and if so, what those limits currently are.
