so it is not a good idea for an open source project, as I feared.

+1. I was concerned from the beginning that our conversations would get more fragmented. I rarely have time to check slack and the mailing list recently seems to be missing quite a bit of deliberation that's happening elsewhere.


I agree same for me.
I cannot be connected all the time. I prefer emails because I can consume them the way I want.

And that's exactly why I still like the usenet: I can read/answer whenever I want, using my mail client (opera, thunderbird) and all is archived and can be searched from within the mail client or by a search engine, Usenet is a central place, accessible to anybody, anytime, and you don't have to search for mailing lists and go through strange opt-in/out mail exchanges,

What was actually wrong with comp.lang.smalltalk and subforums that could only be fixed by opening new sites and mailing lists and whatnot that more or less all look abandoned these days?
