Proposal:Require proposal announcements to be made on the new forum instead of the mailing list: Difference between revisions

{{vote|no}} This should be a two stage process. Start with both channels and see if the new option works. [[User:Adavidson|Adavidson]] ([[User talk:Adavidson|talk]]) 09:50, 9 October 2022 (UTC)

{{vote|yes}} Email is not necessarily best, considering self-hosted or custom domain and other non-major player solutions will easily be caught up in spam. Unless the main website messaging system can be made into email-like to become another mailing list, but that doesn't seem worthwhile --- [[User:Kovposch|Kovposch]] ([[User talk:Kovposch|talk]]) 09:54, 9 October 2022 (UTC)

{{vote|yes}} I belong to the users who a discouraged to participate in the proposal process more by the rule that I need to use the mailing list for announcements. -- [[User:Discostu36|Discostu36]] ([[User talk:Discostu36|talk]]) 10:05, 9 October 2022 (UTC)

{{vote|yes}} It's high time the mailing lists were made progressively more obsolete, it's not the 1990s anymore. --[[User:Rayleigh1|Rayleigh1]] ([[User talk:Rayleigh1|talk]]) 10:06, 9 October 2022 (UTC)

{{vote|no}} As per [[User:Nakaner|Nakaner]], [[User:Adavidson|Adavidson]] and [[User:Something B|Something B]]. I also don't think that the linear nature of Discourse discussions lends itself to long discussions at all. So requiring proposals to be announced on such a platform instead of a platform that actually supports hierarchical threads does not make much sense to me. Yes the mailing list UI isn't ideal but that is something that can be improved. --[[User:Push-f|push-f]] ([[User talk:Push-f|talk]]) 10:51, 9 October 2022 (UTC)

{{vote|no}} as per [[User:Push-f|push-f]] which means it inherits also the contributions by [[User:Nakaner|Nakaner]], [[User:Adavidson|Adavidson]] and [[User:Something B|Something B]]. Also I do not see a reasonable transition plan, how long is the transition period etc. Finally I believe this will make people’s life more difficult because it means we’ll have discussions on the tagging mailing list which lead to a proposal that is then announced on a different medium and voting is on the wiki, so visiting 3 different venues required instead of 2. I could imagine moving the tagging mailing list to the community forum as a whole if it supported threaded discussion. --[[User:Dieterdreist|Dieterdreist]] ([[User talk:Dieterdreist|talk]]) 11:00, 9 October 2022 (UTC)

{{vote|no}} it's premature, the conversation has shown that switching from the list to the forum is non-functional for half of the important points. when this is done, then it will be possible to create a common place between emails and a forum interface, and this proposal will have no more interest, each one choosing his preferred way of communication. until then I see no reason to force people to use an interface with the least advanced capabilities [[User:Marc marc|Marc marc]] ([[User talk:Marc marc|talk]]) 17:10, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
