Hi Matthew. I'm sorry for the delay in responding; I always fall so far behind email during Pycon.

I have some experience with Django (as a personal project I'm working on a web application that analyzes cross country results). So this seems like the best area for me, but if anyone else knows of any opportunities I'd love to hear about them.

I also don't have any experience with mailing lists. I did some research on proper etiquette but if I brake any social rules I truly apologize.

Not at all. mailman-developers is exactly the right place to discuss GSoC. We've had some discussions off-line about the program and how we'll mentor it, and it's time to start bring those discussions public.

Working on the Django web ui is definitely a core task for GSoC this year. Last year Anna did some great work on it, and I think we're in a great position to finish this up, and do more real-world testing with the REST API in the engine.

In the next few days I should be filling out a wiki page on wiki.list.org for our 2011 GSoC participation, which will be under PSF sponsorship. I'd be very happy for you to participate. I registered as a mentor just this morning, and I know Florian will mentor again this year too. You're welcome to email here or ping me on irc.freenode.net #mailman.

I'll send a follow up when the wiki page is up and running. It'll be linked to from the Python GSoC page.

Cheers, -Barry

Hello, I'm a high school senior from Rhode Island. I'm interested in working on Mail Man for the Google Summer of Code. I was wondering where I would best be able to help out.

That sounds great! If you like you can check out some of last year's code on launchpad:

https://launchpad.net/~mailmanweb-django

There's also a python library which makes communicating with Mailman's API pretty easy:

https://launchpad.net/mailman.client

If you're still interested I'd be happy to give you a walk through the code. Just email me or ping me on irc! (#mailman on irc.freenode.net)

When mailman3 will be released? I'm interesting in coding a dynamic archive software, I already made base one using django for mailman 2 with some hacks (you can look there: http://archives.rezo.net/ ).

My purpose is to create a software that can manager users, and permit them to respond to emails, read private archives, set email aliases(if they use multiple e-mails in differents lists hosted), and some "social" features, like setting an avatar.

Please contact me if someone is interested too,

Bests,

I expect the core engine will go into beta fairly soon. Depending on how GSoC goes, I might wait until after the summer so that student's work can help influence the final release.
