Hello everyone :)
I want to introduce myself, I'm Justus, I have worked on GnuPG in the past and am now working on Sequoia-PGP, and I'm running two Mailman installations in a resource constrained shared hosting environment.
I'd like to contribute a little to Mailman, and I'd like to better understand how the Mailman project is doing nowadays. I have gotten a bugfix merged in the past, but I now have what I think is a fairly uncontroversial cleanup merge request that has neither been merged nor has it gotten comments.
As FOSDEM is around the corner, are any of you going to be there and are up for a chat?
Besides cleanups and bugfixes, there are three things I'd like to do:
- Improve Mailman to better scale down to small installations
- Improve latency of messages
- Implement OpenPGP support
Here are the things I did so far:
- https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/-/merge_requests/1094
- https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/-/issues/1050
- https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/-/merge_requests/1166
- I have Mailman running with runners in threads instead of processes, but that is in a proof-of-concept stage at this point and needs some cleaning up
(I understand that Mailman is a GNU project that wants copyright assignments, and I have done that in the past for other GNU projects, and would be happy to do that for Mailman, but at the same time I feel like putting up *any* barrier to contributing is unfortunate.)
Best, Justus
