First of all, I agree with your decision to use mailman. Some of the best list software I've ever used, and I've done a good deal of digging through the python. They even said they'd take my contributions to the as-yet-unfinished Administration manual:

Second, I'd be happy to review and contribute patches to such a list of step-by-step instructions. I can contribute what few pieces I've got experience working with. My area of expertise includes bringing up L2 segments via OpenVPN and bridging them together with the Linux kernel's bridging hooks and the userspace tool, brctl.

I've had good luck using bridged OpenVPN tunnels regionally here in Western Washington. I have also had good luck using routed OpenVPN tunnels with peers as far away as Europe, Japan and Australia back when I was working for MySQL, AB.
Let me know if I can help.

Does anyone have a step-by-step set of instructions for configuring a Linux host as a tunnel subnet gateway for AMPRNet?
I'd like to have a proven list of all the commands that have to be entered to set one up.
I think it would be very helpful and I don't have such a document in my archives.
Thank you!
