[Mailman-Developers] password handling in MM3

[Anna Granudd]

Hi,
when subscribing a user or creating a list in Mailman 3.0 we need to
implement the use of a password for security reasons. Later the same
password will be used for logging in to the settings pages. At the moment
passwords are not handled at all which is why I filed bug #600780 (see [1]).
However, we're not sure how to handle the passwords at the moment and would
like your help with ideas and possible ways to implement this, which is why
I want to start a discussion about the password handling/ login function.
What do we need to think of and how should this best be dealt with?

Thanks,
Anna
