Developers and Admins,
It is understandable that some admins request a Mailman that works on their RHEL3 or older. But please don't let that hold development back at all. Admins really should appreciate that the developers look forward and focus on creating a system that is state-of-the-art. What they come up with now will probably be easy to install on RHEL5, and it will probably be included in RHEL6.
RHEL3 is a "don't touch it if it works" system. And it probably works quite well. And if a part of the system has to be upgraded, then upgrade the whole system to RHEL5.
And if upgrading isn't an option: It doesn't take long time to build a /usr/local/python2.5-for-mailman-only/ on an old system!
