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

{{vote|no}} I think it is too early. People have to warm to the new forum first. I can see that once this has happened there might be a natural tendency for some things to move to the new forum and then we can think about changing the rules. But for now, things work well enough. Frankly, I don't share the rationale above - someone who proposes a new tag will already have to set up the wiki page and read up on the process, will one extra small thing really discourage them? They don't even have to sign up to the mailing list, they can just ask someone else to post the announcement there. I don't see the need to rush this and I also sense some disrespect towards the mailing list community in the proposal, as if one wanted to make the mailing list obsolete as quickly as possible. --[[User:Woodpeck|Woodpeck]] ([[User talk:Woodpeck|talk]]) 09:38, 10 October 2022 (UTC)

{{vote|abstain}} Personally, I won't sign up for the forum, because I simple don't want to sign up for another platform for OSM; I'm content enough with the mailing list. [[User:B-unicycling|B-unicycling]] ([[User talk:B-unicycling|talk]]) 09:57, 10 October 2022 (UTC)

{{vote|no}} ([[File:Symbol support vote.svg|14px]] for adding an announcement RFC (Request For Comments) thread to the new forum (Discourse) & [[File:Symbol oppose vote.svg|14px]] for removing the current required announcement RFC (Request For Comments) to the mailing list.) --[[User:MalgiK|MalgiK]] ([[User talk:MalgiK|talk]]) 10:09, 10 October 2022 (UTC)

{{vote|no}} Way too premature (we weren't even able to completely remove old forums!). Maybe if it was proposed to announce on ''both'' mailing list ''and'' forum it might be more palatable for some, but that simply means double the work for everyone. Better to wait when (if?) the Discourse and ML get merged, so users can access the same content via whatever interface they prefer (of which I find ML infinitely faster and easier and more versatile to work with than clunky web UI with no advanced functionalities) - as that would make a whole issue disappear by itself --[[User:Mnalis|mnalis]] ([[User talk:Mnalis|talk]]) 10:12, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
