Subject: Re: Discussion Forums?
are you making it so that the default way to interact with *Apache* MXNet (note
emphasis) to not be on Apache infrastructure?
Discourse is open source so we can host it on Apache infrastructure and include
it on our site. I will suggest PonyMail on the original thread and see what the
community thinks. Thanks for your feedback Chris.

There is no official policy other than if it didn’t happen on the list, it
didn’t happen.
Decisions must be made on the mailing list, and frankly, as a casual observer
of the dev
list I’m not entirely sure that decisions are occurring on the list right now.
Is there a reason not to use PonyMail? Or at least give it a try?

Hi Chris,
Members of the Apache MXNet community have pointed to the high level of
activity on Pytorch's forum <https://discuss.pytorch.org/> as a reason to
use Discourse. Discourse has a lot of great community features which make
it easier to have a discussion, follow specific questions, and learn
quickly, particularly for users new to deep learning. Discourse is open
source (GNU GPL) API and can also be integrated with the Apache mailing
lists, the way Nabble and PonyMail are. Is there an official stance or set
of guidelines wrt forums? Any guidance is appreciated.
Thanks!
