Mailman 2 is definitely end of life. I am the only one actively
supporting it at this point and while I continue to offer help and fix
bugs, it's not what I want to be doing.

Mailman 3 is the future. 3.1 will be released probably after PyCon in
May if not before, and while there will still be some things "missing"
from the web admin UI (Postorius), and the migration tools for 2.1 lists
are still buggy, we think 3.1 will be a viable replacement for Mailman
2.1. There are currently production lists running on Mailman 3 at
<https://mail.python.org/mm3/mailman3/>,
<https://lists.mailman3.org/mailman3/lists/>,
<https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/> and elsewhere.
