I might have missed some discussion; but why are we moving away from mailman, and what software is in the new system?
Seconded. Mailman is presently the gold standard for mailing list management
Apparently the main exception to this is where you're running multiple lists with similar names, such as when creating lists for multiple languages (e.g. announce@example.com, announce@it.example.com, announce@jp.example.com, etc.). This is the problem the Document Foundation found itself with and they opted for mlmmj (with the exception of one list which does use Mailman), but it has other issues and I definitely wouldn't want to see NANOG go down that path. Since NANOG doesn't need to deal with the similar names/multilingual problem, that shouldn't be an issue. Regards, Ben
