[Python-ideas] A bit meta

Would it be possible to provide an integration of Mailman with
Discourse ?

I know that Discourse already provides quite a few mailing list
like features, but there are still a few issues, which an
integration like the existing NNTP gateway of Mailman could
likely help resolve:

Esp. the inline reply style (problem 4) mentioned there seems
like a show stopper for the way we are used to working here
and on other Python MLs.

There already is a grant for improving Discourse for some of these
things:

If both Discourse and Mailman can live side-by-side, with
Discourse being the "web interface" to the Mailman list,
I think we'd get the best of both worlds.

Cheers,
