I'm just going to charge down the path I was on and finish up something that's a great drop in for MM2/MM3. I'll even try to add some pipermail URL compatibility. It'll be S-BSD, so (if you like it) the MM devs and the FSF can wrestle with issues of whether you want to bundle it as is, put a rubber GPL stamp on it, or just point to it like you would any other archiver. I honestly expected to have an updated UI to show by now. I've been busy with some code-restructuring, and an unbelievable amount of life-stuff came across my bow in the past week. It shouldn't be too long now. > But pointing to it from list.org or blessing it as the "standard archiver" for mailman3 > is probably something that could be discussed by the core devs and yourself. I'm a bit scared of a world where MM3 does not include any archiver. If pipermail popularity is any indication of how often admins 'stick with the bundled defaults', we could have an unreasonable number of MM3 lists with no archives at all. Obviously the team is free to bless any archiver it wants, mine or others. Also, I'm certainly NOT trying to get anyone to agree to bless an archiver before they've even seen it working and kicking butt. I was just trying to understand the many issues as I'm cleaning up my code and trying to find it a home with a bit more utility. I think I have a great idea from all the disussions here..
