We do eventually need to make sure all of the web ui can be translated. Ideally, we'd be able to extract text strings into .pot files and then set up a catalog for the wui. I don't know how Django does it, but it should be part of the story. > 1. Ability for users to subscribe, manage subscriptions, > unsubscribe, change emails > 2. Admin ability to create/delete lists via pre-defined styles Note that in my current thinking, it is the site admin who can create styles. I don't know if individual list admins should be able to do that, though they should definitely be able to pick a style and do some customizations of their list. The ability of site admins to lock down styles, control customizations, and delegate style definitions can come later. > 3.

Lists can currently be easily created on the command line, and subbing/unsubbing is a much more common task, so I think there is an argument for users being able to easily join/leave existing lists before it's easy to create lists through the web. But I don't have strong feelings either way. -Barry
