Needs a Mailman expert to confirm, but this page does seem to imply
that you can use Python 3.6+ (preferably 3.7+) for everything:

https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/install/virtualenv.html#virtualenv-install

Notably, mailman-web gets installed into the same venv as everything
else, implying that it should be using the exact same Python version.
