It is, but the traffic is low so I don't watch it too closely. Please 'ping barry' to get my attention about Mailman 3 issues. I'm always online during working hours EST (currently UTC-5), though I will be offline Thursday and Friday for the USA Thanksgiving holiday. >I've stumbled my way successfully through a few errors, but need some help >now.

Since the a6 release, a new version of buildout was released too. This bug affects Mailman: https://bugs.launchpad.net/zc.buildout/+bug/659231 A workaround is to add this to buildout.cfg: include-site-packages = false and this fix is in the bzr trunk. However, even with this change, I am having trouble building a6 from the tarball, either inside or outside the virtualenv. I don't know what the problem is. >While: > > Installing. > > Getting section docs. > > Initializing part docs. > >Error: Missing option: buildout:allow-hosts > > >Both of these were fixed by adding them as empty variables to my >buildout.cfg: > >find-links = > >allow-hosts = I have not had to add these. >I then get two zc.buildout recipe errors-- specifically for >z3c.recipe.sphinxdoc, and z3c.recipe.filetemplate.

However, as I mentioned that doesn't seem to fix the problem for a6. When I build a tarball for a7 from the bzr trunk, I have no problem unpacking the tarball and building it using the instructions on the web, with or without a virtualenv. I'm doing all this on Ubuntu 10.10. The best advice I can give right now is to grab the Bazaar trunk by doing: bzr branch lp:mailman and running it from there. Cheers, -Barry
