I think the general interplay between mailing lists / wiki pages /
Trac issues that GHC uses works well. Specifically:
- Mailing list for routine communication.
- Trac tickets / Git issues / Phab something-or-other for discussion on a
specific proposal.
- Wiki page to present a specific proposal.
Wiki pages and tickets are therefore often linked together, and
sometimes a conversation has to move from the mailing list to a
ticket (though rarely the other way around).
I specifically vote against using the mailing list to debate
well-defined issues that need to be resolved, as it's far too easy to
lose signal in the noise and hard to see the thread all in one
place.
I fully agree with this point. I also agree that this particular
discussion is in happening the right venue.
I'm personally agnostic about the decision between Trac/Github/Phab.
I'm leaning toward GitHub for RFCs myself, mainly because of the fork &
pull request paradigm. Collaborative Wiki editing doesn't have such a
clear division of responsibilities.
The main question is, do we want the RFCs as part of the process, or
just the draft standard and discussions thereof?
