[Mailman-Users] Read-only setup options for administration

[Narcis Garcia - GiLUG]

Thanks, I'll try with these ways.
(/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/Defaults.py and to /etc/mailman/mm_cfg.py)
Do ADMIN_CATEGORIES in that file work for already created lists?

I'm using Ubuntu server; where are the Mailman/Gui/modules files that 
define the pages?
A good feature would be to have each field customizable to have readonly 
attribute or min.value and max.value.

Another option could be to interfere the value validation when a list 
administrator submits the form.
Which file validates the submited values?
