I'm definitely interested in improving things here, but I'd like to  
try to avoid inventing technology here.  There are so many Python web  
frameworks and templating systems out there, that there's /got/ to be  
at least one that we can adopt.  And I'd like to do so in Mailman 2.2  
if possible.

BTW, I've been working with Tokio's recent HTTPRunner and wsgiref  
interface.  I'm making progress, but I'm realizing that there are  
quite a few things that have to be fixed to make that a viable  
deployment model.  One thing I'm trying to eradicate is absolute urls  
for internal Mailman links.  I've got the listinfo and admin pages  
fixed (mostly), but I probably won't check it in until I have most of  
the u/i working again. ;)
