But that's definitely a good point.
It's a bit more than a "good point". To me this is a fatal limitation. I'm willing to make the effort to adapt to Discourse (thousands wouldn't) but unless a reliable solution to this is found the change is simply unacceptable. I have absolutely no interest in following discussions about the Gnome project as a whole. Evolution is one of the few Gnome apps I use (my desktop is KDE) and I seriously do *not* want to have to deal with this on a message-by-message basis. As others have said, Evolution is primarily an email client, and it makes sense that its main support forum should be a properly managed mailing list. A further point: I'm on several technical mailing lists, each of them with their own management. What they largely have in common is a set of common practices which people have become used to over a period of many years. The Gnome lists appear to be moving to platform which is radically different from every other list I'm on, and which requires a new set of tools to manage. This is a lot of pain for zero gain as far as I'm concerned. poc _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
