[Systers-dev] No User-Interface Support for Mailman3

[Robin Jeffries]

I think it would be great to start by making all of the dlist additions
command line callable, which would put us in good shape for future years.
 After that (I hope this would not take all summer), proposing a UI for all
or part of mailman (e..g., just for the admin interface, or just for the
signup) would be a great thing.
