Sounds good. Is this instead of the news server integration ? Being done prior to that ? Or are they being developed concurrently ?

And no, this is independent of any possible NNTP support and is probably happening first
Okay, though I expect that if a news server option were offered it might include a "common" database for email/news/web posts.
As a windows user the CPanel interface is all that I am familiar with.
It is a redesign of the existing MM 2.1 web interface
Okay, I haven't seen that.
Sounds good. Particularly if one has a "Delete (or hide ?) archive" option. :-)
The ability to post from a web page could be part of this if there is enough interest.
Though I don't like web forums many people do. I am sure that a lot of people would like a web forum interface if it were offered as an "option".
For many people "Web Mail" is a handy way to check what is in their "home" mailbox when on the road, or at work.
The current web access to Mailman archives is very close already to a web forum IMO. All that needs to be added is a "reply" button and a "new post" button.
IF that page were offered, as a html page that administrators could alter, it would enable them to make things "prettier".
