Public bug reported:

[Availability]
The package is already universe for quite a while and build/works fine so far.
It is for example already used for 
https://lists.canonical.com/mailman3/postorius/lists/

This source builds only python3-django-mailman3 and that is also all we
need (no py2).

[Rationale]
This is part of the MIR activity for all dependencies of mailman3
The "main" MIR of it is at bug 1775427:

Mailman (2) has only python2 support, but we strive for python3,
therefore Mailman3 which has python3 support should be promoted to main.

This contains libraries and templates for Django-based interfaces for
mailman which didn't exist in mailman2 (which was not django based)

[Security]

No known CVEs found.
Django in general has quite some hits, but this component seems not to be part 
of it.

[Quality assurance]

As part of the mailman3 stacks as of now (Disco) this installs fine and works 
fine.
On itself it is useful to (many) other dependencies and does not need a post 
install configuration on its own.

No debconf questions asked

Zero known bugs in Ubuntu and Debian for this component.

There are regular upstream releases and Debian packages them and fixes
regularly.

No exotic HW involved.

Build time tests are run, in addition a dep8 test is present.

d/watch is set up and ok.

No Lintian warning except fairly recent newer Standards version.

The package does not rely on demoted or obsolete packages.

[UI standards]

Package uses django.utils.translation for internationalization.
No End-user applications that needs a standard conformant desktop file.

[Dependencies]

Some dependencies are not in main, but we drive MIR for all related packages
that are not in main at the same time.
Please check the list of bugs from the main Mailman3 MIR in bug 1775427 to get 
an overview.

[Standards compliance]
The package meets the FHS and Debian Policy standards.
The packaging itself is very straight forward and uses dh_* as much as possible 
- the d/rules fits on one screen.

[Maintenance]

The Server team will subscribe for the package for maintenance, but in
general it seems low on updates and currently is a sync from Debian.

[Background]
The package description explains the general purpose and context of the package 
well.
