Hi Karl, Email should not have a latency of "several hours" unless there is something seriously wrong, perhaps your mail server (your ISP?) is broken. Or possibly you're still being moderated: we recently changed to moderating newcomers, in response to a flurry of spam.
As a newcomer to this community, it isn't very nice of you to start the conversation by telling us that we're doing it wrong, or trying to guilt us into changing the ways we manage technical discussions to suit your taste over those of existing developers ("If the Steering Council is genuine in their call for greater inclusiveness..."). Many of us *like* email, and consider it modern enough, more usable than web interfaces, with most of the features we want and none of the ones we don't. Without getting into a flame-war, people have very strong opinions about technology, and many people consider web forums to be terrible for technical discussions. I'm not asking you to agree, but I am asking you to respect the fact that the question of what technology is used for technical discussions is nuanced and complicated. In 2019, email shouldn't have a latency of more than a few minutes unless there's a problem, and since code is text, it is perfectly possible to represent code snippets in email. And while we can't move posts from one mailing list to another, you can certainly press the Forward button in your mail client to re-send it. Or copy and paste the text into a new email. But for those who prefer a web-based interface, with lots of ~~unnecessary cruft~~ features like user-icons and badges and smileys, you can try the Discuss interface here: https://discuss.python.org/c/ideas or the Python-Ideas web interface here: https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-id...@python.org -- Steven _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list -- python-dev@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-dev-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-dev.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-dev@python.org/message/3ASOT65IYMF7SBAM4PFIFHGPQI3IRQVS/
