[Mailman-Developers] Want Mailman 3 suite to release faster? Here's some bugs you can help with!
Some weeks back, Florian went through the Postorius bug queue to find a list of bugs that he thinks are blocking us from being able to have a final Mailman Suite release. I just wanted to advertise that list to you all in case anyone here is looking for some valuable work to do: https://bugs.launchpad.net/postorius/+bugs?field.tag=mailman3-suite-blocker There's only 13 of them at the moment, so that's nice. They're in a variety of different states. Some are somewhat old and we could really use someone to just try to reproduce them on the most recent version of postorius and post an update in the bug saying it's still a problem (or not!). Some have notes from me suggesting a smaller piece that could be done first by a beginner wanting a new bug to try or someone more experienced wanting a quicker task. (don't worry about saving beginner bugs at this stage; I'm more interested in seeing a release!) Some are more complex. If anyone's got time to push these forwards in any way, it would be very much appreciated! I'm even happy to send you some mailman stickers if you want a physical token of appreciation.

Very cool, I'll have a look!

Thanks very much for sending this around. On the core, I don't have a formal list of blockers (I should add tags), but what I think must be done include: - Port the REST framework to falcon. This is essentially done, and is just waiting for an upstream falcon release to land on trunk. I have a branch that I'm regularly merging core trunk into and running the tests. - lp:~barry/mailman/subpolicy - this fixes the subscription policy so that it can be set through REST and actually will affect how folks can subscribe. It's a big branch that was blocked on database migration, so now that the SQLAlchemy branch has landed (yay!), I've returned to this branch. I'll go through the 96 mailman3 bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bugs?field.tag=mailman3 and tag them using mailman3-suite-blocker for anything I think has to be fixed before the core can be released. If you have your favorites, please don't hesitate to tag them, and I'll review when I triage. BTW, if you haven't seen the recent work in lp:mailman, please take a look. There's now a tox.ini file so it will make running the test suite much, much easier. The instructions for running the tests against PostgreSQL are simplified too. It's also possible to collect coverage during the test. The numbers aren't as abysmal as I was worried they'd be. ;) We get over 90% for the full code base, though several modules have rather poor coverage. It's not a top priority for suite release, but I do plan on getting the coverage up to 100% over time.
