Accessing the members of a list
by Aditya Divekar Feb. 23, 2016

Feb. 23, 2016

Hi, This is in regard to postorius. Is there a way by which I can access all the members of a list using its 'list_id' in the list.py file with/without creating a new client? The approach I tried was creating a client in the list.py file for this purpose and calling on the 'members()' function from the Client class defined in client.py. The doubt I had here is that the members() function uses the self parameter to decide which list is being referred to. For this, I think I need to pass the … [View More]

Let's try to package mailman3 in Debian!
by Pierre-Elliott Bécue Feb. 22, 2016

Feb. 22, 2016

Hey, As a Debian fanboy and also a mailman addict, I'd like to try packaging it in Debian. As I'm not a DD and as I'm not in a hurry, I'd like to take some time to think about what would be relevant. For that, I'd like to have some help. And I was suggested to come here and ask. I decided to use https://gitlab.com/groups/mailman as a basis for my work. First of all, to create the source package, I've to think about what to put in it. It seems that if I want to have a good source package, I … [View More]

I don't think it's a great idea to change the dkimpy library if you can avoid it. The design I had in mind would add a file for performing ARC operations such as generating fields, and for dkimpy to simply provide the functions for generating the signatures. This probably requires some … [View More]

Dropping Persona
by Simon Hanna Feb. 17, 2016

Feb. 17, 2016

Hi, Mozilla is dropping Persona and shutting it down later this year [1]. Postorius and Hyperkitty will have to drop it, and use something else as a default login mechanism. I propose using the django authentication system by default and making it easy for people to add other authentication methods. If we go with django authentication we can either build everything ourselves (I did it for a couple of projects myself) or use some provided project. This is because django doesn't offer … [View More]registration views and email confirmation. Also password changing and password resetting will have to be added. I know of two projects that do that already: django-user-accounts [2] It's part of the pinax platform, but can be used independently of the other components. It comes with everything we need and not much more. Note that the profiles of django-user-accounts can contain additional emails, which we probably don't want. It's officially supporting django 1.8 and 1.9. I'm not sure about our django dependency policy but since upstream has marked all pre 1.8 as being out of date, I think that we can move on as well... django-userena [3] Pretty much the same as django-user-accounts but it has additional "features" like messaging which we definitely don't need. It's not yet django 1.9 compatible but there is a merge request that adds support for it. Since we have two projects to maintain, I'd rather go with an external app. I guess it would be easiest to have exactly the same configurations for Postorius and Hyperkitty. In order to not duplicate any templates and other code, I'd propose to create a third project that has all the account functionality and put everything we need in there. In case we go with doing everything ourselves, I guess it's still better to create a separate app for that. My personal favorite is django-user-accounts for which I have some basic functionality in a merge request for Postorius so you can have a look at what needs to be changed. [4] Regardless of what approach we choose, we should also think of migrations. Existing internal django accounts can be easily migrated. We'll have to choose if we want to migrate the "social" accounts as well or just tell people to sign up again. We still have time for the transition, but I'd prefer dropping persona before the 3.1 release if that happens to come before the shutdown. What do you think?

The tools.ietf.org site is very nice because you can also get diffs to see what you missed (note that many URLs reference less fancy archives, so if you bookmark one of those it's useful to edit it to refer to a full-service site such as tools). > Do we need to specify the headers (i.e. the ARC-Message signature > and ARC-authentication results) that we want to seal in the "k" tag > just how we would use the "h" tag in the DKIM signature? Earlier drafts of the I-D were more than a little confusing here. I think it's much better now, but feel free to ask questions. The fields added by a particular mediator will be linked by the "i" tag, see I-D sec. 5.1.1.1.1, 5.1.2.2.3, and 5.1.3.1. Also, ARC signatures use the "h" tag in the same way as DKIM, except that the requirements for exactly which headers are are different. (This is intended to ensure that ARC headers, which by definition are *not* authorized by the sending domain, are not mistakenly used as DKIM signatures, which by definition *are* authorized by the sending domain. I'm not sure whether this makes sense, but OTOH I don't see how it can hurt.) Exactly which headers are signed in an ARC-Seal are fully specified by the protocol. > (The usage of the "k" tag isn't clear to me.) Mostly the protocol syntax and semantics of ARC are specified in RFC 6376 (see section 5.4 of the I-D). Selectors are defined in section 3.1. In the I-D, only the new ARC-Seal field is described in full. ARC-Message-Signature and ARC-Authentication-Results are described in terms of differences from the normative RFCs (RFC 6376 for signatures and RFC 7601 for authentication results). By the way, top-posting (especially without trimming) should be avoided in technical discussion. See http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp/Teach/ESES/socsys-1.html for the technical advantages and disadvantages of top-posting and interlinear styles. Also, note that in mature projects (and specifically Mailman and Python) most of the senior developers will be old enough to have been trained in and developed a preference for interlinear posting, and especially trimming. Nowadays untrimmed top-posts are hard to avoid so people are building up tolerance for them, but you can make friends by taking care with your posting style. Steve [View Less]
