[Mailman-Developers] Hi from a student interested in a GSoC project

[Elias Assarsson]

Hi,

My name is Elias Assarsson and I am interested in doing a GSoC project 
for Mailman. The idea I found most interesting is Scripts for migrating 
from Mailman 2.1 to Mailman 3 
http://wiki.list.org/display/DEV/Google+Summer+of+Code+2013#GoogleSummerofCode2013-ScriptsformigratingfromMailman21toMailman3 
. Where can I more information about this idea?

I do not know if it is a good idea but I am thinking that using Augeas 
http://augeas.net might be a way to handle the migration of 
configuration from one format to another. For instance I found the 
following 
https://www.redhat.com/archives/augeas-devel/2012-January/msg00050.html 
when researching the idea. I have no experience with Augeas but this 
might be a good opportunity to learn it. I do however have experience 
with Python (and other scripting languages such as Ruby). Any input or 
help in developing this idea would be welcome.

Some things about me. I am a GNU/Linux user for almost ten year and a 
student in computer science courses in Sweden. If you want to know more, 
please ask.

Regards,
Elias Assarsson
