Freeze break request: update Mailman3+Postorius+HyperKitty

[Aurelien Bompard]

Hi!

There's been a lot of recent changes in the Mailman stack, including a new
feature that will let us migrate more lists. I'd like to update the
software stack on prod and keep it under observation for a few days (there
are apparently performance issues for some people).

This freeze break does not include migrating the remaining lists, except
trans-ru. I've received a request to migrate this one, it has been cleared
of the filters that blocked it before, so it shouldn't be any different
from the others.

What say you? :-)

So, this is just the packages for these things? 

If we update them and need to back out would a downgrade work ok, or
are their database changes, etc?

+1 if we can back out if needed.

There are database changes, but I have upgrade and downgrade migration
scripts in the packages.

+1 if you send a quick note to the list how we could perform the downgrade :)

Sure, that would be:

# sudo -u mailman python34-alembic -c
/usr/lib/python3.4/site-packages/mailman/config/alembic.cfg downgrade -1

While the new packages are still installed, and then downgrade the RPMs.
