That depends a lot on how the tools are used. The git forge issues mechanisms are great to capture an issue and to run an initial design-team level discussion on it. The git forge PR mechanism is good for banging text into shape. Any decisions of the WG need to happen on the mailing list. These decisions may reference the git forge threads, but these in most WGs are not considered a replacement for WG decisions. If you don’t like how this goes, please talk to your WG chair; the details may be subject to adjustment.
To reiterate, I absolutely do not think that this is something that should vary from one WG to another. IETF is already too hostile to generalists, and it needs their input badly.
