[Mailman-Developers] RELEASED GNU Mailman 3.0 alpha 3 (Working Man)

[Barry Warsaw]

I am happy to announce the release of the third alpha version of  
Mailman 3, code named "Working Man".

This is primarily a preview release so that developers and other  
interested people can download the code and participate in Mailman 3's  
further development.  I believe we are on track for a final release by  
the end of the year, and your contributions of code, feedback,  
documentation, etc. will be welcome and appreciated!

Please note that this is an alpha release and as such is not ready for  
production use.

You can get the code from the Cheeseshop:

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/mailman/3.0.0a3

Mailman 3 is buildout based and requires Python 2.6.  To build it, run  
this after unpacking the tarball and cd'ing into it

% python bootstrap.py
% bin/buildout

 From there you can run the tests

% bin/test

and build the documentation

% bin/docs

Highlights in this release include the start of a REST admin server  
for integrating Mailman with external web sites, a combined bin/ 
mailman uber-command, configuration now done through ini-files using  
lazr.config, and better LMTP support.

Enjoy,
-Barry
