I am all for continuing using the forge if it is useful for the
experiment.

Let's see.  Right now the resources we are using are:

  Website:      https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Algol68FrontEnd
  Mailing list: algo...@gcc.gnu.org
  Bugzilla:     https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla
  Git repo:     https://forge.sourceware.org/jemarch/a68-gcc (branch a68)

If I understand you suggestion right, we would simply move the git repo
to:

  https://forge.sourceware.org/gcc/algol68 (branch a68)

Then people could fork it, send patch series based on their forks to be
reviewed in the mailing list, get feedback, do corrections, rinse and
repeat.  Then when the series has been OKed a PR can be made and the
maintainer just merges it.  Is this the idea?

Is it possible to get emails sent to the mailing list when merges
happen, merge requests are issued, etc?
