but how can i export an entire MM3 list (including 20 years of archives) to some serialization format, and import it again in another instance?
With the dump and other utilities from your database manager. Almost everything is in the database. There are some things in Mailman's var/ directory, but those can simply be moved.
urgh. while this will (hopefully) work with a fresh installation, i'm somewhat afraid whether this will also work for: lists (things like changed db schemas come to my mind)
- migrating a single list from one instance to another (at least, if you (like me) do not have have an intimate knowledge about the db layout)
- importing lists into an instance that is already populated with other
right now my task is to move both some MM3 lists (from an old MM3 instance) and some MM2 lists onto a single server with a fresh installation, so i guess i will be fine. my worries are mostly about future migrations.
is a feature-request warranted, or am i worrying too much?
