It's not going to happen. Virtually nobody uses mailman 3 with the exception of Fedora and I know from using it there that the UI is a disaster.
Also it's not packaged for Ubuntu and it's far more complicated to deploy than what we have. Don't think of mailman 3 as an upgrade - it's basically a totally different product. There is talk of a change, but it won't be to mailman 3. Tom On 14/12/2020 18:42, ipswichmap...@tutanota.com wrote:
Okay thanks, I'll contact him on github. I don't havd mailman administration experience, or that much coding experience for that matter. I was just suprised that we are stuck with 10+ years old cluttered pipermail when hyperkitty is actually useable.-- 14 Dec 2020, 18:37 by j...@liotier.org: From looking at the Mailman Chef cookbook at https://github.com/openstreetmap/chef/tree/master/cookbooks/mailman <https://github.com/openstreetmap/chef/tree/master/cookbooks/mailman>, Tom Hughes is the person you should ask. If you have mailman administration experience, maybe you could make it happen.

Currently, pipermail is used to archive, and its UI is *unusable*. Comparatevely, hyperkitty is a lot more like a forum. From my experience, the mailing lists are *far more active* than the forum, so it would be good to have it searchable & more accessible (the only downside to this is newer users might use the mailing list now. I don't think this is a downside, but I understand why others would think so). Also, Mailman 3 still gets updates, while *mailman2 is on maintainance mode and won't recieve feature updates.* I strongly recommend that the mailing lists are upgraded to mailman3 with hyperkitty: this will make the mailing lists so, so much more useable.
