Subject: [gentoo-dev] Packages up for grabs: net-mail/mailman and everything that belongs to it
Date: Tue, 21 Dec 2021 12:23:42 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211221122342.472e0dc3@computer> (raw)

Hi,

I'm no longer using mailman personally, thus I'm not interested in
maintaining it any more.

The mailman packages currently in portage are the mailman 3 split
packages, which involve multiple packages providing the functionality,
plus a large number of dependencies. (Unfortunately with the switch
from mailman 2 to 3 upstream decided not only to move from python 2 to
3, but also to make the whole thing far more complicated and involve
far more dependencies...)

If you're interested in maintaining this please add yourself to the
metadata.xml of these packages:

dev-python/django-allauth
dev-python/django-appconf
dev-python/django-compressor
dev-python/django-extensions
dev-python/django-gravatar2
dev-python/django-haystack
dev-python/django-picklefield
dev-python/django-q
dev-python/python3-openid
dev-python/rcssmin
dev-python/robot-detection
net-mail/django-mailman3
net-mail/hyperkitty
net-mail/mailmanclient
net-mail/mailman
net-mail/mailman-meta
net-mail/postorius

If noone steps up maintaining this I'n not entirely sure what to do
with it, maybe just remove everything? (Including the python
dependencies that aren't used by any other package I guess.)
