Re: [Mailman-Users] ANNOUNCING: GNU Mailman 3.0
Barry, Congratulations, you mail d(a)emon, you! And all the other responsible d(a)emons. Has it really been 20 years since the NIST workshop?

Mailman 3 is really a suite of 5 tools: * The core, which provides the mail delivery engine, the unified user model, moderation and modification of email messages, and interfaces to external archivers; * Postorius, our new Django-based web user interface for users and list administrators; * HyperKitty, our new Django-based web archiver, providing rich access to the historical record of mailing list traffic; * mailman.client, the official Python bindings to the core's REST API; * mailman-bundler, a set of scripts to make it easy to deploy the full suite inside Python virtual environments. What's new about Mailman 3? Well, lots! Some highlights include: * Backed by a relational database; * True support for multiple domains, with no cross-domain mailing list naming restrictions; * One user account to manage all your subscriptions on a site; * The core's functionality exposed through an administrative REST+JSON API; * All passwords hashed by default, and no monthly password reminders! * Users can post to lists via the web interface; * Built-in archive searching! and more. Tons more. There will be things you love about Mailman 3, and things you don't like. You'll glimpse great possibilities and glaring holes. You'll be excited and frustrated. Such is life with an all-volunteer free software project. For the things you like, and the exciting possibilities, we encourage you to experiment, to do wacky things we haven't thought of, integrate it with your own tools, or just carefully go about deploying a Mailman 3 system. Tell us how you're using it! For the things you don't like, we invite you to join us. Come to the mailing list and talk with us. Submit bug reports and pull requests. Help us close the gaps and make Mailman 3 better. Whether your interests are for Internet RFCs, web site development, operations, or you just want to find a fun Python project to hack on with cool people, as they say, contributions are welcome. See the release notes, as well as links to download each component: http://wiki.list.org/Mailman3 You probably want to start with the bundler and let it grab and install all the other parts.
