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-postorius 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.

Django based Interface to manage your mailing lists (new as mailman2 was
not django based)

[Security]

No known CVEs found.
A few old issues can be found against mailman2 and one (but long fixed) for 
mailman 3
=> https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvekey.cgi?keyword=mailman

[Quality assurance]

The mailman3 stacks as of now (Disco) installs fine and provides a base
config. But due to the nature of the package that needs further modification
to be of real use.

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.

The package run a test suite on build time and in addition carries an
autopkgtest.

d/watch is set up and ok.

No critical Lintian warning except fairly recent newer Standards version.
The only interesting one might be a few 
source-contains-prebuilt-javascript-object but those are only --pedantic.

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

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