PyCon 2009 sprint: Webinterface
by Patrick Ben Koetter 24 Mar '09

24 Mar '09

Barry, I am collecting information for my work on the MM3 Webinterface while we meet at PyCon 2009 sprint. So far I have found the "Summer of Code summary" <http://wiki.list.org/display/DEV/2006/08/20/Summer+of+Code+summary>. Any other information/writing I should collect and read before we meet? I also believe I had seen a page where you (?) had noted a link for a design you favoured, but I can't find it. Can you post the link or come up with a list of sites you like? (Not that we weren't able to develop design. I just want to get an idea.). Thanks, p@rick -- state of mind Agentur für Kommunikation, Design und Softwareentwicklung Patrick Koetter Tel: 089 45227227 Echinger Strasse 3 Fax: 089 45227226 85386 Eching Web: http://www.state-of-mind.de Amtsgericht München Partnerschaftsregister PR 563

mailman-pgp-smime: talks at FOSDEM and in Ulm, new release
by Joost van Baal 05 Mar '09

05 Mar '09

Hi, Thanks to the NLnet foundation, the Secure List Server project ( http://non-gnu.uvt.nl/mailman-pgp-smime/ ) , which is including OpenPGP and S/MIME support in Mailman has released a much improved mailman-pgp-smime patch: http://non-gnu.uvt.nl/pub/mailman/mailman-2.1.11-pgp-smime_2009-01-02.patch… . See http://non-gnu.uvt.nl/mailman-pgp-smime/NEWS.PGP-SMIME for the details. There'll be talks about this patch: On monday january 12 I'll talk at the Chaos Seminar</a> in Ulm, Germany, see http://ulm.ccc.de/ChaosSeminar/2009/01_Mailman_PGP_SMIME . On sunday february 8th, 10h20 (probably), I'll give a lightning talk at the FOSDEM conference, ULB Campus Solbosch, Brussels, Belgium. See http://fosdem.org/2009/node/164. The talk will start with a very short overview of the history of Mailman and the mailman-pgp-smime project. Some remarks will be made on how to install and configure the software, so that one can try it. Currently supported features will be mentioned, as well as an overview of development plans. One will learn how to contribute to the project; an overview of the revision control system used will be given. Some remarks on the future of the patch will be made: will it be shipped with Mailman itself? If you have used Mailman, both as a subscriber and as a list admin, and if you know what PGP and S/MIME are, you should definitely attend this talk. Hope to meet you there! Bye, Joost -- irc:joostvb@{OFTC,freenode} ∙ http://mdcc.cx/ ∙ http://ad1810.com/

PyCon 2009 sprint
by Barry Warsaw 11 Feb '09

11 Feb '09

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 It's that time of year again! Pycon 2009 is just around the corner. The conference is at the end of March in Chicago. I'm planning on being there for both the conference and the sprints, and Patrick Koetter and his colleagues are flying in for probably one day of sprinting on Mailman 3. If you're interested in joining us, I've created a sprint page on the wiki: http://wiki.list.org/display/DEV/PyCon+Sprint+2009 and I will fill this in as more information is available. This year I'd like to concentrate on the admin REST server for MM3, and if there's time the web u/i. I'll give a brief tour of MM3 as well. I hope you can join us.

USE_ENVELOPE_SENDER
by Barry Warsaw 10 Feb '09

10 Feb '09

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Does anybody set USE_ENVELOPE_SENDER to Yes these days? I'm considering removing the equivalent of this from Mailman 3.0 and I'd like to know if that would be a hardship for anyone. If you don't know what this value is (which in Mailman 2 lives in Defaults.py), then you probably won't miss its demise in Mailman 3. This flag controls whether the Sender: header is considered before the From: header for purposes of trying to determine the email address of the message's author. At one time in the distant past, this flag was added because it was observed that some MTAs put the RFC 2821 MAIL FROM value into this header, and this was considered less spoofable than the From: header. I think these assumptions are outdated and this workaround is either unnecessary or hurts more than it helps. BTW, the default value is No, which tells Mailman to use the From: header first. I propose hardwiring that default value. Let me know if this would cause you pain.
