Yes, I guess something like a "-m" option would be good to specify that the e-mails being added with the "-a" option are moderators. Right now I have switched to using the REST API as it has all features I need, great work btw!

In Mailman3 it would be nice to be able to add moderators to a mailing list from the command line using the mailman command. Currently I can only see the possibility to add new members to a mailing list, or did I miss something here?

You're not missing anything.  The CLI for adding members isn't fantastic - you have to provide a file with one member per line.  The way to extend this would be to be able to specify the members' role when adding them.  I haven't thought of an elegant way to do this via the CLI, especially when multiple members can be added.  Once a good interface is designed, it would be pretty easy to write the code to do it.

The CLI I built as part of GSoC 2014 supports the above features

It is based on the REST API.

To Add moderators you can do

./mmclient add-moderator list list@domain.org --user a@b.com b@c.com ... Similarly to add owners do ./mmclient add-owner list list@domain.org --user a@b.com b@c.com To add normal members

./mmclient subscribe user user1@bar.com user2@bar.com --list list@domain.org You might want to install the PLY library [https://pypi.python.org/pypi/ply/3.4] to test the CLI fully.
