You start by starting. ;-)  "Claiming" the issue and posting here was
a good start. :-)  First, check with Nitish Kumar Dwivedi
(https://gitlab.com/nitishkd) that s/he is not currently working on
the issue to ensure no conflict over your contribution.[1]  You don't
need to wait for an answer to start working; it won't be useless
duplication for a couple more steps.

Now tell me[2] what you think you should do next.  (Coding != developing.
Developers are engineers who solve problems.  We will help you when
you get stuck, but you have to solve the problem.  Don't worry, we'll
wait. :-)

Footnotes: 
[1]  No, 7 months silence != issue abandoned.  Conflicts over credit
are rare in Mailman; we are a pretty flexible, friendly and
conscientious group in that respect.  On the other hand, we do care
about keeping each other in the loop.  And it's possible that Nitish
has a nearly complete solution in a private branch.  If so, your work
would likely be redundant -- if Nitish is in no hurry to work on it,
try negotiating for joint credit: get that branch MR'ed, and then do
the remaining work to integrate.

[2]  On the issue or on this list -- I will IGNORE personal mail if it
doesn't have a reference to a public channel!! so check your headers
before sending mail, this list does NOT munge Reply-To.  I've assigned
the issue to myself so I will get notifications.
