While viewing the london.pm websight I saw mail list manager is written in 
pirate language "python" which is the rightful intellectual property of the 
python.co.uk hosting company.

For the marketing of community and raising of the profile of Newerish Perl in 
the community if we should port it to a more modern version of it and one which 
respects software patents?

I don't mean python 3 LOL!

Or the outdated Pumpkin 5 but Rakudo 6 to port to Siesta (a feature complete, 
widely used and stable mailing list system)!  

http://www.perl.com/pub/2004/02/05/siesta.html

We need discussions about which version control system to use for it (RCS over 
NFS?) and quoting style for the mailing list itself (top posting, supercite 
quoting and HTML only).  I done a new logo in Xpaint already.  We should host 
on Oracle Unbreakable Linux.  This Oracle/Siesta/Rakudo software stack should 
prove fast and reliable enough for our mailing list requirements.

I also propose renaming pumpkin to "I can't believe it's not Perl!"
