I'm curious why copyleft matters to you. Were you planning on taking the 
mailing list software and redistributing a modified version?

There is nothing in the GPL which prevents you taking something like 
Mailman, modifying it as much as you like and using the improved version. 
There is no requirement on you to release your changes provided you don't 
actually distribute the code to third parties.

What do you mean by 'source control' available in Python? Subversion isn't 
written in Python but you can certainly write Python code which interacts 
with it either client or server-side. The Subversion license is Apache 
style so that would suite you although again I doubt whether it matters.
