Hello Adam, et al, I definitely like the idea of consolidation for ease of tracking, which was why I asked about Pagure plugins to Taiga after one of our other Editorial meetings for the magazine. In my limited experience, I find the Taiga board to be the most effective tool for articles specifically being moved through the publishing steps. Having Pagure for the article ideas as issues tracking, is on it's own fine but maybe magazine article ideas are not like issues/feature requests. IDK. The notifications I get from Taiga are handy, and informative, as is the mailing list. But Pagure can be setup to notify you as well, and I only recently turned on my notifications for the Fedora Magazine issue tracker. Perhaps some of the more seasoned Editors could point out tips and tricks we can use to create a must know FAQ for editors to follow covering this topic. I still can't imagine it being more painful to do some python programming to integrate the plugin from Pagure with Taiga, than it would be to shift the process paradigm by the extent required for moving to a forum based community discussion model for article idea generation and then still not solve the broken link between the idea and the spec card creation we face currently. Personally, I think Pagure is fine, it is how we use it that determines our success with it. So, from the community involvement POV, the Discourse Forum approach would definitely open that up more to the general Fedora community, which would be good for potential participation increase. I just don't see how it solves the idea to spec link issue we face with Pagure/Taiga. It only eliminates the mailing list as an idea voicing medium for members of the community who may choose that method for their own reasons. I'm not sold on the idea yet.
