Hello again everyone on mailman-developers and congratulations for entering GSoC as a mentoring organization!
I have been around for a couple of months in the community and have tried getting acquainted with the codebase and the MM way in general. Lately I started reading up on CI (mostly Buildbot and Jenkins a bit less) and how it exactly worked plus the past archives regarding it.
Still I feel I could use more resources on MM and CI integration as I feel that CI could prove useful to the project and save time for everyone that works on it.
I could use some help with some specific questions though, mainly 1.Does the software in question need to support all SCM currently used by the suite or will multiple ones will be used for different SCMs? 2.Does the software need to work well with tox or will there be a change on that part? 3.Apart from Sqlite3 and PostgreSql support, what other databases are working with Mailman? From what i have gathered the last two months, there are some MySql implementations together with the default but is there any other Database which could need porting during the duration of SoC?
All resources and discussions are appreciated since they will help me form a better idea of Mailman working together with Continuous Integration.
