bin/withlist is the tool for making arbitrary changes to
mailing list objects.  You can write functions for things
you expect to do frequently, or use it interactively with
the full power of Python to do one off changes.

Mailman/MemberAdapter.py is the best source for documentation
on manipulating members and their preferences.

$ bin/withlist -l mylist
Loading list mylist (locked)
The variable m' is the test MailList instance
>>> for member in m.members:
...    m.setMemberLanguage(member, 'ja')
... {return}
>>> m.Save()
>>> {ctrl-D}

would set all current members of the list 'mylist' to use
Japanese for their preferred language.  (The list must be
pre-configured to support the specified language, or an
exception will be raised.)
