Re: It’s time to transform the Fedora devel list into something new

Like many of you, I have built up a lot of workflow around my email.
I'm on several dozen Fedora mailing lists, so I heavily filter my
inbox. In fact, that's one of the areas where I'm least enthusiastic
about a large-scale move to Fedora Discussion. Our tag-based setup
makes it very difficult for Gmail (as an email client specifically) to
filter alerts the way I want.

On the other hand, as someone who often needs to cross-post
announcements and the like, the experience for that on Discussion is
so much better. And there are a lot of other quality of life
improvements, some big and some small, but they add up:

* The ability to move threads from "contributor" to "developer" areas
and vice versa
* Splitting off tangents to a new thread
* Editing posts (with visible history, of course)
* In-post polls
* In-line date/time tags that can render the time in the user's zone

Discussion isn't perfect, but it's better on the whole than I thought
it would be.
