Mailman 2.1.18 release

[Mark Sapiro]

I am pleased to announce the first release candidate for Mailman 2.1.18.

Python 2.4 is the minimum supported, but Python 2.7 is recommended.

This release has new features to help with mitigation of the impacts of
DMARC on mailing lists.

There is also a new dependency associated with these features. Namely,
the new Privacy options -> Sender filters -> dmarc_moderation_action
feature requires that the dnspython <http://www.dnspython.org/> package
be available in Python.

There are also bug fixes.

See the attached README for more details.

Mailman is free software for managing email mailing lists and
e-newsletters. Mailman is used for all the python.org and
SourceForge.net mailing lists, as well as at hundreds of other sites.

I am pleased to announce the first release candidate for Mailman 2.1.18.

I neglected to emphasize that there are some new and some modified i18n
strings in this release.

I strongly encourage all interested people to look at these and submit
translation updates, preferably as launchpad merge proposals but
directly to me is OK, before 1 May 2014 to get them in the final release.

Python 2.4 is the minimum supported, but Python 2.7 is recommended.

It turns out that Mailman 2.1.18rc1 required Python 2.5 or later. The
problem code has been modified and I have released Mailman 2.1.18rc2.

Fixing this issue is the only change. If you are trying to run Mailman
2.1.18 with Python 2.4.x, you need to use 2.1.18rc2 or later. If you are
running with Python 2.5 or later, either version is OK.

Please submit any i18n updates before May 1 to get them in the final
release.
