In Mailman 2 there is an Admin web UI for "Topics". Is there such a web UI that can be enabled in Mailman 3 so that the list owners can create topics (tags) in their lists?
Do you specifically want topics, that is, a way for users to select subsets of the list posts based on themes set by the administrator?
That's what I was referring to. One of the list admins was asking about it after I moved the list from Mailman 2 to Mailman 3.
There is (was?) an alternative specification implemented by the Systers, which they call "dynamic sublists".
If that sounds as good as Mailman-2-style topics to you, I can add/emphasize it on our GSoC task list.
Although that sounds good (and I don't think the use of email commands would be onerous to people who would value sublists), I am the wrong person to have an opinion on it as I haven't really used Topics in earnest and most likely would not use sublists.
That said Steve, thank you for your considered reply. A font of useful (and much appreciated) information as always.
Best, Mark
