- External user database. I'm sure you're all aware of the desire of some folks to have this. I found a Wiki document somewhere on the zope.org site that had discussions on this but I believe it was somewhat dated. Have any conclusions been reached with respect to the direction here? I think I read talk of a Zope-specific solution. I'm wondering if this means that we're likely never to see a Mailman that can talk to a MySQL database. I believe this one feature alone would elevate Mailman significantly. How hgh of a priority is this to the development team and what is the status? Are there current discussions on this somewhere other than the list (wiki boards, chats, what-have-you) , and if so, may I take part?
See MemberAdapter in Mailman 2.1.x. As it happens, I'm currently writing an advanced LDAP backend [ yes, I've see the other one :-) ].
