I haven't gotten a lot of feedback on this proposal. (I know a lot of

take it to users@, unless there's a reality of it happening.
In the interest of moving this forward, I'm going to open an exploratory
issue with Infra to see how much work it'd be to make this happen.
Hopefully, we're not the first people to ask.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-20301 has been filed.
We'll still need a vote here, or on users@, before we would actually
move activity to GH Discussions, but it won't be the gating factor for a
while yet, I bet.
FYI, per our project guidelines/bylaws, this would be a non-technical
decision, allowing for lazy consensus and a lazy majority (3 binding
+1s, more binding +1s than binding -1s), with binding votes cast by
committers, and no vetos.

You are proposing to mirror email traffic which means that mail
archive would have a complete history and spare the project from
total vendor lock in.
Yup, that'd be a requirement from the ASF's perspective, regardless of
technology we select.

I'm interested to know what we think about this and how this
might/could fit into our plans for user support, discussion, etc.
Given that we already have email integration with GitHub, this will
probably be easier to get through the ASF bureaucracy than something
brand new.
I'm willing to take this through Infra if people agree to it. It
doesn't
look like there are any separate "boards" or tags yet, so the proposal
would likely be that discussions there would get emailed onto user@.
The
hard part will be getting replies to the thread on user@ to go back
into
the discussion on GH; we might be able to get an "asf-bot" to do this
for us.
I also looked at Infra's JIRA database, and no one has put in this
request there yet. So, we'd be the first, with all the difficulties
that
entails.
Can I get an informal "vote" on this approach and go-ahead? Since it's
informal, anyone is encouraged to respond.
