Dear list,
we noticed that there is a function to convert the member list into a CSV format and save it.Therefore, we would like to know if the implementation of a CVS import for mass subscription is already planned? If not, how can we submit a corresponding feature request?
Best regards, Markus Grandpré

Now that you mentioned it, I looked at what the CSV export does and I see it only exports the subscribers' email addresses and no other data. OTOH, ``mailman members listname@domain``` does give more information.
So as you head to make a feature request, maybe you could ask that the CSV export should the same data that the above command produces, but in CSV format.
I believe the link to make feature requests is https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/-/issues/?label_name%5B%5D=feature%20requ...

Actually, that URL will produce a list of current issues which are
tagged feature request. To submit a new one, go to
https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/-/issues/new and create the issue and
tag it as a feature request.

The exported CSV is just a list of email addresses, and that could be easily just pasted into the mass subscription form.

Why was it called a CSV? Appropriateness or future plans to download a true CSV?

It is a CSV, albeit with only one column. It was implemented by <https://gitlab.com/mailman/postorius/-/commit/f9121a7afca0e0d4aac49509598b256486a60c8e>. You'd have to ask the author if anything further was planned.
