Welcome! This is the right place to ask.
You probably will not find C and C++ very helpful in learning web
development ... especially not Python. You should start with the
Python tutorial (my own preference for my students is the Python 3
tutorial at
http://docs.python.org/py3k/tutorial/index.html
but you might want to start with Python 2 at
http://docs.python.org/tutorial/index.html
for web development, since many libraries are only partly ported to
Python 3 at this point).
Then you should install the Bazaar VCS for your platform
http://bazaar.canonical.com/
do "bzr help launchpad" to learn how to set up your ids for Launchpad,
where Mailman's code repository is hosted, and get the most recent
code for Mailman 3 from
lp:mailman
Then come back here, browse the mailman-developers archives, and ask questions!
