Feel free to also have on a wiki for collaboration to get it done, but after that, the final proposal should, IMO, go to the mail list.Does anyone else feel this way? Mail archives will live for years in distributed places. Wiki's seem to be single-sourced and a lot more ephemeral....
Thanks, Geir - there was a half written msg with exactly this topic in my outbox... I fully agree with you that at least anything which is subject to a vote should directly include all the relevant information - no links for substantial content, just for extras like fancy PDFs describing the architecture or tarballs of the initial codebase etc.
This may sound a bit picky but everything else unfortunately comes with too many disadvantages (no real archives, dead links, no offline access, etc.).
Cheers, Erik
