Hi, I'm not a Developer, I'm just a Fedora user and I'm subscribed to several mailing list from the Fedora Project, including the mailing list related to Development discussion on Fedora. I rely primarily on GMail Web client, I use filters to get all the emails sorted by mailing lists. To be honest I don't see the need to move the discussions from mailing list to any forum alike driven discussion board. And I share other members views from members of this list and the devel list: If this mailing list or any other is ditched in favor of this new shinny thing I don't plan to move to that and will stop reading and attending discussions. > I'm wondering how the people who regularly use fedora-users mailing > list feel about that.

There is a new thread on Discourse that was created to address a topic on non English languages category and I don't plan to participate there. Polite as usual, Porfirio. _______________________________________________ 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
