[Mailman-Users] Does Mailman require Java? Java is a tremendous problem elsewhere.

[CARTER Anthony]

Nope, it doesn't use java. It uses python and cgi scripts for web admin...You 
can manage mailman via a web interface or via email....If you have access to 
the mailman home directory, a number of administrative tasks can also be 
performed from there.
