I'd suggest the wiki for now, but that's just my preference. In related news, I haven't heard any more about Gitbox and reversing the direction of mirroring from INFRA. Some may recall that we ask about that a few months ago. With a reversed mirroring, we would could use Github's web UI to do merges (as Claude was just expecting to do) and the repo would get mirrored back to Apache. The cost would be that we lose our current convenient Jira integration, although INFRA is aware of that and is interested in working on that problem.
