Actually you can get feedback without having to subscribe to git mailing
list; and I am not talking here about GitGitGadget gathering response
like GitHub Issues <-> mail bridge.  You can get your feedback via
public-inbox.org, and respond to feedback via public-inboc.org mail to
[Usenet] news interface, reading and replying via NNTP (or replying via
email from thread read via NNTP):
  nntp://news.public-inbox.org/inbox.comp.version-control.git

Unfortunately it looks like newsreaders are dying category of
applications.  KDE's KNode got discontinued in 2015, XPN (X Python
Newsreader) last release had in 2009, MicroPlanet Gravity in 2010; there
is still Pan, Gnus for GNU Emacs; some e-mail clients also have support
for Usenet, like Mozilla Thunderbird (and SeaMonkey), Sylpheed and Claws
Mail.

This technique might not be described in our documentation...
