Jan, since I see your name in Fedora's koji builds, could you roughly summarize what inclusion of Mailman 3 would mean? I still see Mailman 2 in Fedora for instance, so I'm wondering whether there is not some problem with version 3 for instance..
Due to the large number of Python modules required by Mailman 3 there are no plans to support this in Red Hat Software Collections.
