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

{{vote|no}} While I would support announcing the proposals in the new forum, there are a few problems: 1) It is unreasonable to stop use of the mailing list before the forum is even tried. 2) Not everyone wants to discuss proposals on the wiki, some seem to prefer the mailing list, and they should be allowed to continue discussion there. 3) The proposal also is not clear where new announcements should be made, it is said that it could be in the forum "[https://community.openstreetmap.org/c/general general]" formum or a new "to create sub-community for proposals" - but this needs to be decided now if this is going to be a requirement. Therefore, I recommend creating a new "proposal" forum and recommending use of it, then see how it works before changing "requirements". --[[User:Jeisenbe|Jeisenbe]] ([[User talk:Jeisenbe|talk]]) 19:45, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
{{vote|no}} At a bare minimum, there needs to be a transition period where both are in use, to see how well announcing on the forum works in actual practice. --[[User:Carnildo|Carnildo]] ([[User talk:Carnildo|talk]]) 19:50, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
{{vote|yes}} This makes the proposal process accessible to a wider part of the community. But for a while, there should be a strong recommendation to include the tagging mailing list as in the past (because otherwise a part of the community that has participated so far would surely be out of reach). Maybe automated messages to the TML are also possible once a new RFC or voting has been started in the forum.--[[User:Supaplex030|Supaplex030]] ([[User talk:Supaplex030|talk]]) 21:02, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
