Communicated to whom? Have you ever read "Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy"? One glaring omission in [1] and [2] is *this* *list*. Are you expecting everyone on this list to also be on the Gnome devel and foundation lists? Many people who use this list don't even use Gnome, have no interest in Gnome, nor really care about it. They just use Evolution and want some help. > but what's even more discouraging is seeing users on your list It's not my list. I'm just a user who has been trying to help people. > mentioning we're switching to *Discord*, or others not even > understanding Discourse has the same mailing list workflow that you > have today but has some sugar added on top for people who like web > forums and other features Discourse provides. My experience of web forums is that the discussions are disjointed, without any real threading, and it's difficult to follow detailed, lengthy, discussions. Does tacking a mail interface on to it alleviate any of those issues? Do the notifications mails from Discourse have threading information in them? I don't see how it can if some posts are written on the forum and some are email based. Have these sorts of issues been thought about? This is a mail client we are talking about here, we CARE about such things. > > > There's a subset of lists (the l10n ones) which have requested an > exception from October's deadline, we can surely offer that in case > you want some more time in order to migrate somewhere else or just > give Discourse a try.

I presume there is no other option under the auspices of Gnome? There's no point in lying down in front of the bulldozer?
