I think a user@ mailing list is better for the project’s sustainability and Apache.
I have examples related to POI where there is substantial StackOverflow support happening. 12 years ago I became a POI committer for answering user questions. Recently we asked an active StackOverflow answer if he was interested in being a committer and StackOverflow was his community. Apache records are always better than stuff at another company. Gmane and markmail email links have rotted away. I would encourage a user list for the visibility for the PMC in understanding what’s happening along with a more coherent community!
