IMHO, it was a mistake to bring up ask.fedoraproject.org to begin with. We
do not have the resources to maintain it (hence the outsourcing), and it is
yet another communication platform that is fragmenting the community. We
already had mailing lists and forums (i.e., already one platform too many).
I do not see what ask.fedoraproject.org allows that was not already possible
with those two existing platforms. Jumping on the hype of the day "every 6
months" is just not a reasonable thing to do.
