Greetings,
this may be entirely the wrong place to ask this question, and if so I apologize.
While integrating mailman with our website, I am trying to integrate in our browse mode. When browsing lists, we generally try to show users the following pieces of data:
Mailing List Subscriptions Postings Publicity Access (listname) (moderated/open) (moderated/open) (advertised/not) (person's access to the list)
The only way I can see to pull this data is by using config_list. I've actually recoded this (my_config) to drop the comment fields since all I need is the variables and the values. But really, I only need very specific variables and values.
Has anyone come up with a simple way to either (a) directly access the configuration files for a given list from PHP or (b) used withlist (I'm not a Python programmer, so I'm hitting my brain against a wall right now... for anything advanced) to pull specific variables?
Is there a patch or some little piece of open source code somewhere that can help me with this problem?
Config_list seems to work ok but it is taking a lot of compute cycles to run it against 20 lists in a row on a browse screen...
Cordially, Justin Long
