I'm interested in working on a REST-style interface for controlling
Mailman.  One thought: should the web UI be written atop such a REST
interface?  Pro: it would nicely enforce decoupling the UI and the
Mailman engine, and be a good test that the REST interface supports
enough functionality.  Con: adds an extra layer.

(A sketch of the REST interface is in the wiki at
http://wiki.list.org/display/DEV/REST+Interface .  It's written from
the 2.1/2.2 point of view; I don't know if mm3 reworks the basic
objects so much that the REST interface no longer applies.)
