[Mailman-Developers] Virtual Mailman hackathon this weekend: Mailman Suite package!

[Terri Oda]

Hi all!

Something we've done periodically is try to get everyone on IRC over 
the weekend, all working on Mailman at the same time.  It's great time 
for people to show and get patches reviewed, chat, and get work done 
together.  Everyone is invited!

This weekend's hackathon, my plan is to try and get a Mailman suite 
package working.  The final goal is to have it so that "pip install 
mailman-suite" will give you a full mailman suite install.  The plan is 
to create the "one package to rule them all" version of Mailman Suite, 
with Mailman Core, Postorius, and Hyperkitty packaged together, 
preferably with Postorius and Hyperkitty sharing a django instance.

I know basically nothing about python packaging, so help from people 
who do would be much appreciated (Barry?).  Even the newest student is 
just as able to read docs and suggest things as I am on this particular 
project. :)

I'm planning to be on #mailman on freenode around 10am PDT until 5pm 
PDT on Saturday the 15th, with possibly some more hours on Sunday 
depending on how things go and what else I have to get done.    I may 
not manage to be actually at my computer every moment of that time since 
a friend is doing some filming at my house that day, but I'll try.


Here's a short line of schedule in UTC.  Everyone else, feel free to 
add your own planned hours here so we know when we overlap, or just drop 
by on the day if you're not sure of your schedule in advance.
