[Bug 1191911] [NEW] [feature-request] calendar appointments support

by Alexander Adolf

Public bug reported: This is an feature proposal/enhancement request. I am running standardisation groups, and often schedule conference calls, Web meetings, etc. To invite the working group members, I add a mailman list as an invitee to the calendar appointment on my calendar. That way, everybody on the list gets and invitation, and also update emails are delivered when I drag the appointment around on my calendar. Everyone stays in sync. Nice. I don't care who of the list members actually accepts the appointment, because the dates are fixed by other means beforehand (e.g. doodle.com). But of course I never see any accept/decline responses. This causes my calendaring app to consider the appointments as "unconfirmed" since none of the invitees has confirmed their participation. I hence have to manually edit such appointments in order to make them show up as "confirmed, busy". To alleviate this. it would be awesome if mailman could optionally be configured to automatically respond to the sender of an email containing a calendar appointment, and accept the invitation. Maybe this could fit in the content filtering section? That way, mailman operated lists would confirm their attendance on behalf of their members, and the calendar appointment on the organiser's calendar would have the proper status. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: feature-request -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1191911 Title: [feature-request] calendar appointments support To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1191911/+subscriptions

[Bug 1082495] [NEW] Support bracketed prefixes in subject as filters

by Gordon P. Hemsley

Public bug reported: Many large mailing lists use bracketed prefixes in subjects as a way to filter messages into smaller buckets, allowing some subscribers to read all mail sent to the list while allowing others to filter messages (in their mail client) to read only the messages they are interested in. For example, the W3C's www-style mailing list uses these tags to filter messages based on which CSS spec they refer to. Thus, a subject line that begins "[css3-fonts]" will be assumed to be about only the css3-fonts spec, with a target audience of only those interested in that particular spec and not, say, the css3-flexbox spec (whose subject lines would be prefixed with "[css3-flexbox]"). To handle this, the Mailman archive interface would provide an option to filter only on particular prefixes (as well as messages that don't have any prefixes), allowing a user of the archive to use it as they otherwise would, but filtering the output such that they only see the messages they want to see, instead of the whole archive. In addition, it would be helpful to allow mailing lists to automatically prefix subject lines when the message is sent to an e-mail address using a plus alias. For example, sending mail to www-style+css3-fonts(a)w3.org would prefix the subject line of the message with "[css3-fonts]" in the message sent to subscribers and in the archive, whereas sending mail to www- style+css3-flexbox(a)w3.org would prefix the message with "[css3-flexbox]". It should also be allowed to have multiple prefixes on a message, and having such messages be treated as if they had any prefix individually. In terms of plus aliasing, there are two ways to handle it: (1) allow aliases to specify multiple prefixes in a plus alias using some separator (e.g. a comma: www-style+css3-fonts,css3-flexbox(a)w3.org); or (2) detecting and intercepting when a single message was sent to multiple e-mail addresses with different plus aliases for a single mailing list (e.g. sending the same e-mail to both www- style+css3-fonts(a)w3.org and www-style+css3-flexbox(a)w3.org), treating it as a single message with multiple subject prefixes when sent to subscribers or stored in the archive. Now, I understand that this is likely a huge undertaking, but I think it would go a long way to helping users with large and diverse mailing lists. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1082495 Title: Support bracketed prefixes in subject as filters To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1082495/+subscriptions

[Bug 1070064] [NEW] Add a 'policy' command

by Barry Warsaw

Public bug reported: It would be kind of nice for MM3 to implement a 'policy' command. If you issue this email command, you would receive a response containing an admin supplied policy text. This response should adhere to the general grace period timeouts, and the text should be retrieved via the generalized url retrieval and caching machinery. This way, the same policy text could be retrievable via email command or web ui. There should be a way to request policy documents in multiple languages. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Wishlist Status: New ** Tags: mailman3 ** Changed in: mailman Importance: Undecided => Wishlist -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1070064 Title: Add a 'policy' command To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1070064/+subscriptions

[Bug 956384] [NEW] Continuous integration and real-world testing

by Andrea Crotti

Public bug reported: This is not a real bug, I would just like to start a discussion about what can be done to set up a continuos integration system. Is there any Jenkins server which can be used? Another thing which I was thinking is if we have some real tests on real systems with various MTA such as Postfix/Exim. I haven't tried it yet but it seems that http://vagrantup.com/ and puppet could really be very nice tools for the job. And we could then 1. fire up a VM 2. install the different MTAs 3. create some complicated mailing lists and check that everything works correctly Other ideas? ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: mailman3 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/956384 Title: Continuous integration and real-world testing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/956384/+subscriptions

[Bug 1004056] [NEW] ability to add administrator via command line

by Jeff Marshall

Public bug reported: How do I add another person as an administrator to either a single >list or to my full mailman installation? I don't see this in either >Postorius or the command line tools. It would be useful to have a command line interface for adding extra administrators to a mailing list. It could either be added: 1) to the existing 'members' subcommand as an additional option on the --add command (like --admin --add blah(a)blah.com) 2) to the existing 'members' subcommand as a separate post-add step (step 1: --add blah(a)blah.com step 2: --admin blah(a)blah.com to add admin rights to that existing subscriber) 3) a new subcommand #2 seems like a reasonable approach. #1 is limited because you could only give admin rights when first adding a user. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: mailman3 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1004056 Title: ability to add administrator via command line To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1004056/+subscriptions

[Bug 975708] [NEW] Switch to the `requests` package

by Barry Warsaw

Public bug reported: The `requests` package <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/requests/0.11.1> was all the rage at Pycon 2012. Seems like it could replace the use of several similar packages like httplib2, urllib2, etc. For future investigation. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Low Status: Triaged ** Tags: mailman3 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/975708 Title: Switch to the `requests` package To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/975708/+subscriptions

[Bug 975707] [NEW] Investigate something like ZeroMQ

by Barry Warsaw

Public bug reported: At Pycon, we talked about the need for the core to potentially push data to Postorius, HyperKitty, and other components. It makes much more sense for the core to be capable of publishing events and data to a messaging system like ZeroMQ, which those other components could subscribe to. This is a placeholder for future investigation. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Low Status: Triaged ** Tags: mailman3 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/975707 Title: Investigate something like ZeroMQ To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/975707/+subscriptions
