strictly from a Mailman point of view, where should I install Mailman 3.0?

The short answer is "Anywhere, as long as the relative positions of components are in the same place". Basically, just use "python setup.py install --prefix=$YOUR_PREFERENCE".

My habit has always been to install my own application in /opt.

I don't see any reason to vary from that Don't try to mimic Ubuntu's layout for Mailman 2.

Also, would you use a base directory named mailman or mailman-3.0.0b1? Thanks

I personally will be using "mailman3"

I do think it's important to be careful about the upgrade to 3.1.

The help on this mailing list (and mailman-users) is just phenomenal! Thank you so much!
