Hi Abhilash,
Thanks for your reply.
The point is, I think I'm missing something. I'm just a sysadmin who wants to deploy Mailman 3.x to be used for an operational environment, like any other software. Is this software actually ready for that? Of course, I'm not asking for .rpm, .deb, etc... because I understand that's quite complex, but I tried it following all available guides, including the Contributor's Guide, and it seems impossible to get it running at the first time (or just to get it running) without getting crazy or fixing lots of unexpected errors during installation.
Have you tried to deploy Mailman 3.x strictly following the documentation?
By the way, many thanks for your hard work!
Cheers, RI

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to deploy Mailman 3.1, but it seems there isn't a clear place to look for documentation. I found two different sites:
https://mailman.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ http://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/
Both of the above are actually latest documentation,
docs.mailman3.org should be the one to look for installations guidelines for the entire Mailman 3.x Suite,
mailman.readthedocs.io is the documentation of Mailman 3 Core, which handles the mail.
http://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/prodsetup.html
This should be the best place to start, be sure to look at the Pre-Installation Guide if you are new to the Python ecosystem.
Do you know which one should be followed? Both at the same time? I find it quite unclear... and this installation will be for an operational environment.
Also, there are some (official?...) docker images, but all images are for mailman 3.0 but not mailman 3.1, and of course updates are not guaranteed.
It is meant for Mailman 3.X series and is maintained by me. It currently includes the latest releases for all the Mailman's sub-projects, also Mailman 3.1.
Hope that helps!
