Hello Everyone,
I am pleased to announce that Mailman Core 3.3.5b1 is now out. It is a pre-release for 3.3.5, which is slated to come out in 3 weeks from now.
I am planning for a 2 week beta period, after which I'll release the first RC and then stable a week after. Right now I am not planning to release a second beta version, but if there are several changes in Core in the next week or so, then I might.
This release includes a lot of bug fixes and some new features. It also includes a security enhancement that improves the authentication of REST API by adding resistance to some timing channel attacks.
A full list of changes in this version can be found here1.
We have also made improvements in the i18n workflow and now the email templates are updated from the translated messages in the .po files that we get from Weblate. Documentation for translators is available here2 if you want to help translate Mailman into your native language.
This is a pre-release version, if you want to test it with your setup, you can install it using:
$ pip install --pre mailman==3.3.5b1If you want to download a release tarball, you can do so from here:
https://pypi.org/project/mailman/3.3.5b1/#filesThis release received a lot of contributions from community, which I am really happy about! I'd like to thank everyone who made this release possible!

Does Mailman release stable versions with only software defects fixed and no new features?
Are features frozen at this time for 3.3.5?
If so, I'd be interested in helping test.

The heading "Bugs" has always bugged me because I star reading it as an list of outstandign bugs. . I believe that "Bug fixes" or "Software defects corrected" would be better heading.
This release received a lot of contributions from community, which I am really happy about! I'd like to thank everyone who made this release possible!
Thanks for your announcement and to everyone moving this forward.

Hey Everyone,
I just tagged and released Mailman Core 3.3.5rc1 release.
This is identical to 3.3.5b1 in code, the only changes that have been made are in utility scripts and testing configuration.
You can install this version using:
$ pip install --pre mailman==3.3.5rc1If you want to download a release tarball, you can do so from here:
https://pypi.org/project/mailman/3.3.5rc1/#filesThis is the first (and only) planned release candidate for 3.3.5 release. The stable release is planned for next week.
thanks, Abhilash

Should I upgrade my Mailman 3.3.3 installed from Debian Bullseye? I would have to bypass the Debian installer. Or will there be Debian packages available? Same question for Postorius 1.3.6

@Eggert, I believe you used apt to install and so you have to wait for the package maintainer to avail the upgrades via apt.

I am excited to see 3.3.5 with its many updates available. Thanks to all the contributors.
I would like to know this too, as I was just about to install parallel to the Debian package(s). I expect there are many of us.
Going forward, what is the best way to maintain a stable version of 3.3.5 with security and defect fixes only, exluding new features? Is picking and applying individual checkins on gitlab the only way?

If you install using the guide from Virtualenv Installation — Mailman Suite 3.3 documentation (mailman3.org) https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/install/virtualenv.html#virtualenv-insta..., then you can pretty much upgrade at will.

Since Mailman 3.3.4 has been out for over six months and the latest Mailman 3 in even Debian sid is still 3.3.3, I would expect a long wait before these latest releases are available in Debian/Ubuntu.
I am excited to see 3.3.5 with its many updates available. Thanks to all the contributors.

I would suggest abandoning the Debian packages and installing as
documented at
https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/install/virtualenv.html. You
should be able to keep all your existing configuration files and the
database. You could even keep list as the Mailman user if desired.
Once you have done this, upgrading via pip from PyPI or even from GitLab
is very simple.
