Also, I did not quite get the "*coming up with a **great layout *" part. Do you mean to build a custom shell for mailman? If yes, what extra functionality should it provide than the standard command line tools?
I think that probably is what he means, but I personally don't think that's appropriate. If people want a "CLI with layout" (which I agree is plausible), what's wrong with Postorius via Lynx? (Florian?)
No, that's not what I meant (using the term "layout" was obviously confusing - sorry for that!). I think we're talking about two possible, but very different concepts of a client here:
One is the one-off command (with options) that outputs a result,
either on stdout or saved to a file. This could make for an
interesting project, but I think then it would really make more sense
(like Steve said) to extend the existing mailman command instead of
writing a new one.
The other (and the one I had in mind) is a tool you invoke with a
commando which then offers a interface a little different from that of
your standard terminal shell (bash or else). Just like you invoke the
mysql/sqlite3 client (with a db name or file as option). What I meant
by "layout" is really the question what happens after one starts the
tool by typing something like $ mmclient --list=foo@bar.id" or $ mmclient --domain=python.org", not the actual visual representation.
Does that make more sense?
