During the last meeting it came up that the mailing list here will likely shut down somewhere around
the end of the year. We listed basically the following options for future discussion forums:
* google groups as a mailing list hoster. One question was whether its friendly to subscribing
without a gmail account, which may be limiting to some.
* github discussions on the lightning org. One question is whether the moderation tools here are
sufficient.
* Someone (probably me) host a mailman instance and we use another mailing list. I dug into this a
bit and am happy to do this, on the one condition that the ML remains fully moderated, though this
doens't seem like a substantial burden today. One question is if spam-foldering will be an issue,
but with full moderation I'm pretty confident this will be tolerable, at least for those with email
hosted anywhere but Microsoft lol.
* A discourse instance (either we host one or we use delvingbitcoin, which AJ hosts and has
previously offered to set up a lightning section on).
There was some loose discussion, but I'm not sure there's going to be a clear conclusion. Thus, I
think we should simply vote at the next meeting after a time-boxed minute or two discussion. If
anyone has any thoughts or would like to have their voice heard, they can join the meeting in a week
and a day or can respond here and I'll do my best to repeat the views expressed on the call.
Matt
