Actually its a GNU project, which is not at all Linux specific. Mailman in its current incarnation is Unix-centric in a number of ways (which subtley different from Linux-centric), but that is mainly due to the majority of the developers (and thus the users) having Unix as their preferred (server) platform.
We chaned to Mailman because we needed some things LISTSERV didn't have.
Like what? (might as well pump up our strengths)

LISTSERV probably has the most features, but what I meant was that we now have the option of changing whatever we want to. Some messages/responses are still hard-coded into LISTSERV. The same is true for Mailman, but in Mailman I can choose to modify the source - you cannot beat that ;)
