Hey mailman(3) friends,

The Debian Mailman Team needs some help.

We (Jonas and Pierre-Elliott) packaged mailman3 components and
dependencies and maintain the packages since a few years. Unfortunately,
lately, considering the increasing requirements to maintain the packages
in good shape, particularly because of their dependencies, we are
finding ourselves lacking of the appropriate time to do it in a timely
manner, which makes handling bugreports et al harder than what we would
like.

Also, while we both still run Mailman3 instances, a broaded contributor
environment would be better.

The mailman3 packages consist of the following:

* mailman3: the "delivery engine", a daemon written in python3, along
   with some MTA (mail transport agent) integration.
* mailmanclient: the official Python3 bindings for Mailman3's REST API
* postorius, hyperkitty: webinterface/web archive, django components.
* django-mailman3: the common component for both Postorius and
   HyperKitty
* mailman3-web: wsgi daemon for the django web application with quite
   some configuration magic and webserver (apache, nginx) integration.
* various dependencies: mostly python3 libraries or django components

So we're looking for you if you:

* happen to run mailman3 instances and have some spare cycles
* want to give your share to keep mailman3 packages in Debian
* are keen to get your hands dirty in python packages which touch a lot
   of different packaging aspects

We're looking forward to you as a new Mailman3 Team member.

Kind regards
 Jonas & Pierre-Elliott
