[Mailman-Developers] GSoC 2013 (GNU Mailman) - introductions
Hello I'm Karl, 2nd year bachelors CS student from University of Tartu in Estonia. I went through the ideas list and noted down some that I found interesting: 1. Full anonymization 2. Log monitor 3. RSS, NNTP access to archives I got the dev enviroment set up and running and will go through the bug tracker and try to fix a few bugs. If I should run into trouble, I'll let it be known. A little about myself (you may want to skip this). I have about 5 years of programming experience, including programming in python. Last semester I gave lab sessions to first year students (python), and also have some work experience with flask. Other strengths include algorithmic skills (I participated in International Olympiad in Informatics 2 years ago and my team was in semi-finals of the ACM-ICPC competition this year). I'm hoping to participate in GSoC since while I'm an avid open-source consumer, I haven't had any success in contributing to something this big before and it's about time to fix that. You can find some of my toy projects at https://github.com/macobo. I will be accessible by email, skype (macob0) and through IRC (nick macobo at #mailman), but since my time zone is UTC+2, I might not be accessible at all times. Looking forward to (hopefully) working with you Karl-Aksel Puulmann ___ Mailman-Developers mailing list Mailman-Developers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-developers%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-developers/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9

My skills are in Python, Django little HTML, CSS. Frankly, I don't grade myself to be expert but I am in just - intermediate stage, where people are not afraid of taking new challenges, roles. No worries -- we don't have any tasks this year that I would say require an expert, and all of them should be good for getting you more practice in a skill. Have you had a chance to set up a Mailman 3 development server and play around yet? With your experience with django, you could easily handle some of the bugs in postorius to get some practice working with our code base.

Re: [Mailman-Developers] error while setting up mailman on ubuntu please reply
It depends on the version of zope on your system.
I'd update the zope.interface before mailman buildout.
Here is an example chef recipe for mm3:
nclude_recipe python
# Install base packages for mailman3
%w{
bzr
postfix
openssl-blacklist
ssl-cert
}.each do |pkg|
package pkg
end
python_pip zope.interface do
version 4.0.5
action :install
end
bash Download mailman do
user root
code -EOH
cd #{node['mm3']['install_dir']}
bzr branch lp:mailman
EOH
creates node['mm3']['home']
end
bash Install mailman3 do
user root
code -EOH
cd #{node['mm3']['home']}
python setup.py install
EOH
end
# Install mailman conf file
service mailman do
supports :restart = true, :start = true, :stop = true, :status = true
action :nothing
end
template mailman do
path /etc/init.d/mailman
source mailman.d.erb
owner root
group root
mode 0755
notifies :enable, service[mailman]
notifies :reload, service[mailman]
end
template #{node['mm3']['config_dir']}/mailman.cfg do
mode 0440
owner node['mm3']['owner']
group node['mm3']['group']
variables(
'mm3_config' = node['mm3']
)
notifies :reload, service[mailman]
end
# Install Postfix hook for Mailman
service postfix do
supports :restart = true, :start = true, :stop = true, :reload = true
action :nothing
end
postfixHook = EOF
# Mailman hook
recipient_delimiter = +
unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 550
owner_request_special = no
transport_maps = hash:#{node['mm3']['home']}/var/data/postfix_lmtp
local_recipient_maps = hash:#{node['mm3']['home']}/var/data/postfix_lmtp
relay_domains = hash:/#{node['mm3']['home']}/var/data/postfix_domains
EOF
ruby_block Install Postfix hook for Mailman do
block do
file = Chef::Util::FileEdit.new(/etc/postfix/main.cf)
file.insert_line_if_no_match(/# Mailman hook/, postfixHook)
file.write_file
end
notifies :reload, service[postfix], :immediately
end
hope this helps,

[Mailman-Developers] GSoC 2013 - GNU Mailman - Introduction and Project Discussion
Hi all! I am interested to participate in GSoC this year and would like to choose GNU Mailman for it. I have gone through the proposed ideas and I would like people to tell if they are feasible for one summer! 1. Boilerplate stripper AND Better content-filtering / handling error messages. 2. No-logging mode. 3. Anti-spam / anti-abuse in Mailman. 4. My own project idea: Mining the list logs and recognize interesting patterns for better enhancements (the admin need not have data mining experience) By far, I am looking to duplicate bugs on my comp and am aiming at writing a patch or two before the student deadline, so that I have much more time to work on my application. # Bragging mode ON. You may want to skip this. And, let me introduce myself. I am Sreyantha Chary (lets make it Sreyanth), a 3rd year undergrad majoring in Computer Engineering at the National Institute of Technology Karnataka. I wont consider myself an expert in python programming, but yeah, I am good enough to work on intermediate projects. I have used Django for my university projects and loved it. Research wise, I am into Machine Learning, Information Retrieval and Data Mining. And coding wise, I try crazy stuff, sometimes just to check if I remember anything from the documentation! # Bragging mode OFF. People, please let me know your take on the projects I am interested in. How far is my proposed idea feasible? Thanks in advance. Thanks for your time! * Thanks and regards * * * *Mora Sreyantha Chary* *Computer Engineering '14* *National Institute of Technology Karnataka* *Surathkal, India 575 025* ___ Mailman-Developers mailing list Mailman-Developers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-developers%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-developers/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9
