Hi.
What's the latest on Mailman with Python 3.12? Looking at Ubuntu 24.04 upgrade plans and realised it comes with Python 3.12. Ubuntu are shipping Mailman packages from Debian so not sure if they have made any changes to make Python 3.12 work. I don't use those packages myself.
Andrew.

Unless the MM3 developers specify that there is an incompatibility with Python 3.12, then ideaally MM3 should just run. My MM3 servers run on Python 3.11. However, I think they will not address issues related to OS-specific packages as the recommended installation method is the virtualenv <https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/install/virtualenv.html>, not the packages.

Just to add on to this, I did whip an Ubuntu 24.04 VM and was able to install and run MM3. No errors so far.

Current Mailman 3 works and is tested with Python 3.12.
