A big advantage of nmh's code stability is that it provides a natural place to stop. Should we consider starting with a clean slate? An extensible architecture and modern language would make enhancements and maintenance much easier. And safer, e.g., nmh still uses mktemp because replacement is just too painful.
Of course, it won't be easy to reach consensus on what should and should not be in it, what language, whether or not to use middleware, etc. But going through that process should give the gsoc student "more exposure to real-world software development scenarios."
