Maybe so, but I see little hope that Debian is going to turn into the Energizer Bunny any time soon. They've been getting slower and slower on everything (except putting out bilyuns and bilyuns of new -0.1 packages of _0.2 upstream releases) for years, and this summer they couldn't even get security releases out the door in a timely fashion.
I really hope Mailman can avoid getting tied to Debian's release cycle.
