Mailman 3 is architected such that it should be easily integrated with any web framework, whether it be Python based or not. It can be controlled through a REST API, so the framework need only speak HTTP and JSON. We'll likely support a Python client out of the box though for Python frameworks. We're also working on a standalone web ui for MM3 which currently is Django-based. This will be for people who want a turnkey solution, but it will work just like the above, talking to the Mailman engine through REST. >And how the authentication system would be working in Mailman 3.0 , like the >issues of clear text passwords as if someone wants to use the mailing list's >database info can be used somewhere else . MM3 can currently handle multiple types of passwords, though I wouldn't say the authentication API is set in stone. By default though it will not store plain text passwords in the database. Thus password reminders are gone, opting instead for password resets. -Barry
