I see. It's a bit confusing: The `mailman3-web` Debian Package still 
uses the older mailman-suite[1] project as source, which is similar but 
not identical to the newer mailman-web[2] project that you mention.

We have plans to migrate to mailman-web, but didn't find time to do it yet.

Still I agree that a `/usr/bin/mailman-web` wrapper script would be 
useful. The next upload of `mailman-suite` (binary package 
`mailman3-web`) will ship one.

Kind regards
  jonas
