I'd really rather not at this stage, as I'm already seemingly having to
spend time talking about how Discourse is set up, rather than what I was
trying to do. I don't want to end up in a big debate on where "requires
account" or "distributed moderation based on trust levels" sits.

The point of this Discourse instance is to try and see if there is
interest in moving to it rather than smartlists for community
discussions. If there is sufficient interest, we can then find a group
of people who want to consider these tradeoffs and who are willing to
help with the way categories are organised, for example.

If there is sufficient pushback, I'll delete the instance, move on with
my life, and conclude that no one in Debian can possibly try and
innovate or do new things unless it is either:
* 100% optional for people, or
* made completely compatable with the old way of doing things

Apologies if the frustration is showing, but hopefully you can see where
this is coming from.

Neil
