I don't know of anyone who is currently working on it, nor do we have specific plans at the moment.

Is there anyone interested to work on this as of now ? I was thinking to start working on this integration. If anyone is interested and we can integrate it together, it would be great.

What sort of integration do you have in mind?

The idea is to have a two way binding sort of integration, where the conversations can be carried out in discourse as well as mailing list mode.

Both python and discourse have their rest apis. Discourse has its front end for the api in ember.js ( A javascript framework ) that works in the browser. So, we can have a delivery queue for discourse like we have other delivery queues and a processor for that queue that hits the discourse api. Also, we will have to tweak a little bit on the ember front end so that it hits the mailman rest api every time a new message is sent from discourse, or else, if the mailman rest api should not be opened publicly, then we will have to tweak on the server side at discourse api, as both mailman and discourse will be hosted on the same server.
