RELEASED: Mailman 3.0 alpha 6

I happy (and somewhat relieved :) to announce the release of the sixth alpha
for Mailman 3.0.  There is much new coolness that you will want to explore.

The biggest change is that the administrative REST API has been greatly
improved and is now reasonably well fleshed out.  You can create and delete
domains and mailing lists, subscribe and unsubscribe members, and reconfigure
your mailing lists through the REST API.  The documentation has specific
examples of how to do it.  This means that you can actually start to try to
integrate Mailman with your web sites.

The big push between now and the first beta will be to complete the import of
Mailman 2.1 data, and integrate it with the UI work done by Anna and Florian
for the GSoC.

The tarball can be downloaded from Launchpad or the Cheeseshop:

    http://pypi.python.org/pypi/mailman/3.0.0a6

The full documentation is also available online:

    http://packages.python.org/mailman/docs/README.html

See below for the changes since alpha 5.  Please note that Mailman 3 is not
yet ready for production, although we'd love it if you test it and provide
feedback!

Enjoy,
-Barry
