The online documentation is here:

http://packages.python.org/mailman/README.html

but I admit that the "Getting Started" page is a little bit out of date.  It's
mostly right though.  You can also build mm3 in a virtualenv, which is how I
actually run it in my test-production servers.

This would make a nice easy bug for someone to work on.  I've added two
official bug tags to the tracker: 'documentation' and 'easy'.  Just go to
http://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman and use the advanced search to find bugs
with either of these tags.  If it also has a 'mailman3' official bug tag, then
you'll know it's targeted for Mailman 3.

Cheers,
