No. It seems to be a forum, much prefer mailing lists, forums always
treat email as a second-class (or worse) add-on.

I don't see a problem as long as a forum allows to emulate a mailing
list. If Discourse allows one to subscribe "to everything" and reply
to posts with email, then you get pretty much a mailing list in your
email client.

I don't know if Discourse allows that, but if somebody confirms, then
there should be no problem.

I can confirm. See my other email to this list for details.

Discourse bills itself as a mailing lit alternative, and as such offers a 
smooth and gradual transition, allowing people that prefer the mailing list 
experience to keep it.

We were asked to vote, I vote against anything that looks like a forum
and has a web interface. YMMV.

I'm also against any type of forum and prefer stay with the list.

I understand your reluctance to use a web interface, but Discourse can be 
configured to behave exactly like a mailing list for the people that prefer 
that mode of communication.

If you can continue using it that way, communicating via email without having 
to deal with a web interface, would it bother you that other people can have 
different options?
