Mailman 3 is operational on python.org. The web UI, Postorius and
HyperKitty, is at <https://mail.python.org/mm3/>.

There are currently 5 lists:

> List name 	Post address 	Description
> GeoPython-Organizers 	geopython-organizers at python.org 	Organisation of the yearly GeoPython Conference
> GeoPython 	geopython at python.org 	GeoPython Discussions - general discussions about Python & Geo
> MM3_test 	mm3_test at python.org 	Mailman 3 test list
> Overload-sig 	overload-sig at python.org 	Overload SIG: discussion of ways to improve discourse on Python development channels
> SwissPythonSummit 	swisspythonsummit at python.org 	Discussions about the yearly Python conference in Switzerland


MM3_test is my playground. Overload-sig was set up to migrate the
Mailman 2.1 list of the same name, but this hasn't been done yet -
Postfix is setup so if there is both an MM 3 list and an MM 2.1 list
with the same name, mail is delivered to the 2.1 list.

The other 3 lists are actual lists requested by people who were willing
to try Mailman 3. The GeoPython list has over 60 members and archived posts.

That of course affects the python.org installation. I am going to try to
add both GitHub and GitLab as additional OAuth2 providers. Currently we
have only Google and Facebook. Yahoo works, but I won't make it
available until we get some DMARC mitigations for MM 3. Twitter is
problematic - they will authenticate you but don't give us your email
address.

Note that I will be on a back country hiking trip from August 5 - 16 and
will be totally off-line for most of that time.
