Hi again community,
As I was checking https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/ to give it a shot and fix any bug, I noticed this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1104505 tagged with "wishlist". The exact bug description is : "There should be an interface for posting to a list from the Web UI". After about 2 months Terri made this wishlist one of the proposed projects for GSoC. This got me thinking and drew the conclusion that Mailman is considering a lot the users feedback/suggestions.
So since Mailman is looking for students who are able to contribute useful features, I'm going to have a look at all bugs/wishlists and collect the ones that are related to "Web Posting Interface" to a certain extent (a good starting point to get a clue about what features the users find useful).
After all, in my opinion, these suggestions should guide us in refining the project to function as users expect to (features suggested by developers should also have an impact).
Looking forward to hear any suggestion in order to include them in my application proposal as described here: http://wiki.list.org/display/DEV/Google+Summer+of+Code+2013 in the "Web Posting Interface" project description.

Hello to all the members of the community. My name is Peter Markou and I'm currently running the last year of my university course. I'm deeply interested in implementing the "Web Posting Interface". Since I've maintained and integrated phpBB forum in a european project that I participated about 8 months ago(MUTW - Multinational Undergraduate Team Work http://mutw.praxisnetwork.eu/ ) I think I will be able to offer some additional features to make it a replacement for phpBB. Thanks in advance for your time and looking forward to discuss any further details.
