Hi Bhargav,

Just do *mailman start*, without the bin.

I have edited the wiki.

Thanks Barry and Terri for your feedback. I was trying to install Postorius locally and analyze what all would be required in a mobile app for Admin. Doing the same, I have hit a roadblock. I am using the wiki provided here[1]. I tried to install mailman using "set up sources" part of the wiki. Though python setup.py install executes without any errors, I am unable to see the folder bin/ in the same directory. So, even though I proceed with further setup, I am getting a "Mailman REST API not available. Please start mailman core" on my localhost:8000 webpage. Could anyone help me here?

I have a few questions regarding this idea.

Personally, I'd prefer if we went hybrid and had an html5 webapp that could be used straight over the web for mobile users who don't want to install an app, with Cordova used to build the individual platform apps.

I don't know the answer to this off the top of my head: Barry?

We don't expect you to actually translate anything, don't worry. :) But you should definitely build as much as possible so that internationalization will be easy: make sure there's a quick way to get a list of strings that need translation, at least. Some of the strings may be already translated in other components of Mailman, so you may be able

to

get some translations to use to test if you have time at the end of the summer for internationalization.
