Google Summer of Code 2011
The GNU Mailman project is happy once again to be participating in the Google Summer of Code for the year 2011. This time, we're involved under the Python Software Foundation's banner.
This year's focus for Mailman projects will be continuing the great work done last year on the new web user interface for Mailman 3, work on the Mailman 3 engine, and other activities around Mailman 3. We're very happy that Florian Fuchs and Anna Granudd have agreed to mentor this year, and Barry Warsaw will also be providing mentorship. Mentors and students should contact us on the public mailing list mailman-developers@python.org.
List of projects
Here then are a list of projects for GSoC 2011. We're not limited to these, so if you have other ideas, do let us know! We'll expand on these as we get students interested in working on them.
- Complete the Django web u/i begun by Anna last year
- Complete the REST API
- Take the Syster's archiver code and make it a suitable replacement for Pipermail
See Priya's Mailocate for information on search use cases and code
See Yian's Archives UI for information on archive use cases and code. Note that some of these interfaces were for a modified Mailman instance that had a notion of conversations. I think this is something worth integrating into Mailman 3 and we have the code for it, if people are interested in continuing from here

Add support for RFC 5064 and Stable URLs to Pipermail
- Convert Pipermail from shelve/pickle to SQlite (or actually a pluggable ORM)
- Built-in NNTP and IMAP access to archives and admin interfaces.

Getting started
The code for Mailman 3 is on launchpad here: https://launchpad.net/~mailman-coders
You'll note that the base code and the web UI code are actually separate right now, so make sure you install both if you want to see the web UI!
The code produced by Systers last year can be found here: https://code.launchpad.net/~systers-dev – note that this code was developed for a modified Mailman 2.1 installation, so it won't apply directly to Mailman 3.
