Happy to announce that the mailman migration is over. We are now on version
2.1.18 and running on a jessie machine, fermium.

Here is a summary of changes that are relevant to users and list admins:

Administrators / Moderators

   - Emails are validated more accurately. Spam prevention.
   - Poster password added. Allows users who may meet moderation standards
   to automatically have their emails accepted.
   - Cookies now set the secure flag when over HTTPS (default).
   - Sessions can be invalidated through logouts on administrator and
   moderation interfaces.

Users

   - DMARC improvements solve issues users have with Yahoo and Outlook
   regarding mail. This isn't done yet but unblocked with the new version.
   - Password reminder link is now on the roster page (private archives).
   - Emails can be automatically accepted to private lists if a poster
   password is used provided by list administrators.
