Would it make sense to move es-discuss to that upcoming site? I’m not
particularly fond of mailing lists and much prefer forums, especially
discourse-based ones.
If not, does Discourse support email as a first-class subscription
mechanism? That (plus mute) might help.
I haven't used discourse a ton, but according to the features page:
http://www.discourse.org/about/
They support email notifications and replies, as well as an opt in mailing
list
Yup the ability to subscribe to categories, ignore users and mute threads.
Along with the ability to set digest periods.
Here are all the options I get in preferences:
Along with the ability to mute each thread too.

OTOH I know people (dherman, cough) who can't hack the email load of
es-discuss, and do not like the well-known email tendency to have threads run
off the rails into endless digression and argumentation.
But Arv's point about gmail mute feature is good. I think any competent email

Let's talk about this at July's TC39 meeting. Maybe we can have best of
both worlds, thanks to Discourse. (I don't think any such es-discuss

Having two es-dis{cuss,course} list-like things is not great.

things if one doesn't wish to email this list. It may be worth exploring
using that more fully before asking TC39 to consider an alternative to
their existing mailing list.

The only thing I don't like is the fact it's mixed with what's on
discourse.specifiction.org. I post more on discourse.specifiction.org than
on ES-Discuss, meaning I'm more comfortable bothering the people with my
ideas there than on ES-Discuss.
Plainly because it's not always ES related.

clients for the following reason: it's easier to allow people who want to
keep using email to do so while enabling a richer and more aggressive
experience for those who want it than it is the other way around

Discourse has the options to keep the same level of email reporting, daily
aggregation and allowing for responses via mail.
I'm not sure I see the need for a new category there either, there are
already:

- asm.js
- APIs
- Architecture
There are a fair few structured conversations there that
