Dear Ubuntu Developers, Following the move from IRC to Matrix, the topic of moving to Discourse from mailing lists came up, as one might expect. I can't be alone in finding it extra effort to track both. Could the key Ubuntu developer lists move over to Discourse entirely, so there's one fewer place where key Ubuntu development communications happen? I note that ubuntu-desktop@ has essentially made the move already.
Personally I'm less sure this time, because I haven't found a way for various mailing list workflows to work on Discourse for myself, but I am open to figuring out how to make it work. In response to my concern, Ian Weisser[1] has kindly offered to spend some time with me and anyone else similarly skeptical to figure out how mailing list workflows would map over to Discourse. This would be realtime - I think the plan is to use some suitable video call platform. So this is now an offer to all Ubuntu developers, especially those skeptical about deprecating Ubuntu developer mailing lists, to help give Discourse a fair shot by allowing Ian to suggest alternative workflows that will work for you. If you'd like to join, please reply privately so that I can coordinate the session with Ian. Thanks, Robie [1] In case you're unfamiliar, Ian is a prolific participant, moderator and general leader over on the Ubuntu Discourse side of things, and is an Ubuntu member.
