Ah... ok. Which means this could be a stop-gap solution till we get 
something better. @Anant @Amardeep and the entire @hamara team , could 
you take it up for a spin and see ?

Description: simple and extensible NNTP server
  Papercut is a simple NNTP server.  Its main objective is to integrate 
existing web based message board software with an Usenet front-end.

  However, using Python, new article containers can be added to store 
and retrieve messages from various source and formats.

  This package contains the following storage classes:
  * Phorum web bulletin board (on MySQL or PostgreSQL),
  * phpBB web bulletin board,
  * PHPNuke/NukeBB web bulletin board,
  * proxying another NNTP server,
  * simple MySQL database,
  * maildirs,
  * mboxes.

  Please note that Papercut is only a NNTP server, not a full-featured 
news transport system.  It does not handle newsfeeding or other usual 
news software features.

Maybe something we could work with till we get Mailman 3 sorted out. WDY 
all think ?
