Hi, There's a big mail thread on fedora-devel about using a web forum software called Discourse instead of mailing lists. The idea is that it would invigorate the Fedora community by encouraging younger people raised on social media and mobile platforms to contribute. One of the targets they have mentioned is the user list, because of its nature of short term question and answer topics. There has been push-back by developers because they have their custom solutions all working great around email lists for doing their work. I'm wondering how the people who regularly use fedora-users mailing list feel about that. Which would you prefer? Unfortunately, it's an either / or proposal, because there is no interface in Discourse for emails from an email list to be put in their forums, though they do have email notification for new web messages. Would you willingly or reluctantly migrate to the new platform? Here are a few links from that thread. https://theforeman.org/2018/07/discourse-6-months-on-impact-assesment.html https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/ https://meta.discourse.org/t/what-is-mailing-list-mode/46008/9 https://meta.discourse.org/t/biggest-busiest-discourse-forums/30674 In order to access discourse, because fedora is using the hosting provided by discourse, you will have to grant js access to http://discourse-cdn-sjc1.com _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
