 - Think about a Mailman.Debian (python-)package for postinst helpers.
 * done in Rev 87
 
+- mailman-{en,i18n}.postinst: move /etc/mailman/LANG to
+  /etc/mailman/templates/LANG keeping ucf database up to date!
+
+- mailman.postinst: if qmail-to-mailman.py has been modified, keep the
+  copy in /etc/mailman w/o symlinking to it from /var/lib/mailman but
+  copy its configuration to mm_cfg.py.
+
+- With up to > 1100 templates to keep track of (43 for english only),
+  ucf is the wrong tool to rely upon.  Maybe a rewrite using a BDB
+  database is the way to go?  Also we always have original templates
+  at hand in /usr/share/mailman/templates, there's no need for an
+  additional copy by ucf when --three-way is enabled.
+
 This list is by no means meant to be complete.
