In other words, it'll be a failure but not look like one at a glance. Driving people away and making it harder to keep track of topics of import is going to necessarily constrain how much people are able and willing to do. It doesn't get simpler than that. And I have *not* seen a Discourse instance be successful in that with large teams, much less large groups like the development groups within Fedora. -- 真実はいつも一つ!/ Always, there's only one truth! _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-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/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
