Would there be a way to show the number of subscribers to a list in the web UI?
Currently the answer evidently is no. I'm not sure why Mark is pessimistic (except that I don't see hordes of list owners breaking down our doors for this feature), because I don't see why it couldn't be added. HyperKitty already imports mailmanclient, so it can query the list. If you want to pursue this, you should file an RFE in the tracker, but I won't promise it will be very high priority, and it does mean closer integration with core than we've had so far, so there might be some unease from the developers. (I don't see why there would be an issue, except for the slight increase in maintenance burden.)
Hyperkitty today aims to be functional without Core, what that means is that it can be used (with the exception of Replying/Posting via Web UI) while the Core is down/unavailable.
While it isn't impossible, it would be a change of behavior compared to how it functions today.
Although, if it is okay to have a value that is at max 24hr stale, Hyperkitty can pull the number of subscribers from the API daily with its routine job which pulls other information. Although, I'd like that process to be more realtime, but I haven't figured out a great way to do that yet.
On the other hand, we do have a bunch of students and others interested who were attracted by Summer of Code and Season of Docs, and one of them might find this an interesting task. It's not an introductory project, but it looks straightforward to me, with well-defined requirements.
