[Mailman-Developers] Problem Passing Parameters to the REST API

Hello Barry,

I had the same (roundabout) problem as my peer in regards to passing parameters to the REST API. For the Systers-customized version of Mailman, I wanted to add an 'essay' field to the member, such that someone trying to subscribe to our mailing list would write an essay that could be stored. I made whatever changes to the code I thought were necessary and then attempted to subscribe a member myself.

This Google Doc highlights some code and errors that I ran into.

My main question is: How deep do I need to go into the subscription workflow to add a single field?

Thanks, Nafisa Shazia
