Anyone interested in cosponsoring work on a tighter integration of Plone and Mailman?

[Ben Rudder]

Thanks for responding Raphael

I'm not a developer, so I'm a bit out of my depth
But I understand that Listen was the product that couldn't cut the  
mustard
We have a possibility of quite high load further down the road  
(several lists, perhaps a few thousand on each)

I got the impression from our developers that they were worried this  
might break things in Plone  if Listen was used
The idea they have is to drive both Plone and Mailman authentication  
from a separate membership data resource. But once again I could be  
blowing air.

The developers are out there somewhere I think -- anyone want to  
pitch in?
