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
  • 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.
