Last I checked, MM3 was just not suitable for a small set of smaller
lists and to be maintained by less experienced people.
In what aspects was it not suitable? I have never encountered a document
stating that.
Of course not, that's my opinion- every time I look at what it takes to
install MM3, it seems like a lot of work for the results. If I need to
run a few lists of tens of people, I don't want to spend multi-hours
doing the setup. Kind of like using a 10 tonne lorry to move a table and
chairs; it just doesn't make sense.
Perhaps that's changed, has it?
I am not able to answer that before I get the answer to my question above.
There you have it. MM2 has been quick and easy to install and configure
and light on the resources, MM3 appears to need a lot more. (How long
does it take to install and configure a complete and usable MM3
installation? What are the resources needed? At one time, I ran MM2 on a
90Mhz Pentium and it did the job; there's a 2006 list post about it.)
Did you also know that MM2 relies on Python2.7 (Recommended) which was
already EoLed?
Um, I've known that for years, thing is MM2 -still-works-! This might be
why there seem to be a fair number of MM2 installs out there in production.
My first MM2 install was probably 18-20 years ago.
