We really should keep the mailing list alive, and enable people to choose which interface suits them best. I don't have a problem in switching to github as the primary tree, but we should keep the original location intact as a mirror and continue to allow people to use the mailing list to send patches. This is especially important for low-volume mailing lists, where we have quite a few occasional contributors, and we should strive to make it as easy (and convenient) as possible for them.
Well they're planning to keep the mailing list - it isn't an mdadm list anyway. So long as they keep an eye on the list for list responses.
A lot of people (like me) go near github maybe once in a blue moon. Expecting non-dedicated developers to check regularly is a very big ask. Expecting reviewers to know what to do on github is a big ask!
I use github for a project, and really don't know my way around it. Cheers, Wol
