Summer of Code ideas

Here are some ideas in case anybody is interested in helping Mailman under Google's 2006 Summer of Code program. See also the Mailman 2.2 page for additional ideas. Email me directly if you're interested.

• Rewrite the web GUI to use a modern, standard templating toolkit like Kid or Cheetah. The key thing here is that it must provide internationalization support, hopefully much better than forcing translators to translate entire templates under the Mailman 2.1 system.

• Provide a SQLite member adaptor, either using PySQLite directly, or an abstract framework like SQLObject or SQLAlchemy.

• Write a mod_python adaptor to Mailman's CGI interface.

Any other ideas?
