Hello folks, I'd like to officially kickoff the Mailman 3 web user interface project. I want to invite all interested developers and designers to join in on helping to produce an awesome, modern user interface for the next version of Mailman.
I believe we have enough infrastructure in the core Mailman 3 engine to support at least initial work on the WUI. The architecture we've laid out is solid I believe. The Mailman 3 engine provides a REST HTTP server exposing a full-access administrative interface. The WUI will be a separate optional process that sites can run, which communicates over REST to manage security and provide external HTTP/HTML access to Mailman functionality for users, list administrators, and site administrators. All discussions about the WUI can be conducted on the mailman-developers mailing list. The wiki can be used to collect artifacts such as design notes, decisions, and progress: http://wiki.list.org/display/DEV/Web+Interface (Contact me or mailman-ca...@python.org off-line if you need write access. The wiki is fairly locked down due to spam.) The Launchpad project for the Mailman WUI is here: https://launchpad.net/mailmanweb but there is currently very little there at the moment. Remember too that we are trying to gather critical mass to sprint on the WUI at Pycon 2010: http://wiki.list.org/display/DEV/PyCon+Sprint+2010 Enjoy, -Barry
