[asterisk-dev] Mailing List Future

[Floimair Florian]

I agree!

To me the mailing list is the best source of gathering information, especially in terms of announcements of new Release versions.
While there might be more info in the github releases the trigger is always the mailing list.

I also agree with some of the others that the mailing list is in fact low volume, so therefore it is a very convenient place to look into once there are new messages, as the low volume does provide very convenient management of messages. A high-volume mailing list is in fact much harder to digest so I like It as it is.

I also would like the list to continue. I use it to follow asterisk development.

Mailing lists are great for following along and observing topics and development in a way that forums are absolutely not. I read every post on this list and frequently learn from it, because it's a passive feed in my email.

I would not do the same on a forum. Reading through each thread and keeping track of new ones is simply too much of an investment.

my thought can we get the forum with tag dev should have a separate mailing list   not to be overflowed with the regular forum mail and also need a easy way to send a question with no need to log on to forum
I think this is the hurdle!
Does anyone agree ?

the majority of the responses seems to be against the discontinuation of the mailing list.

Yes, this is true. It would be nice to have more input though so if other individuals have opinions (including why they want the lists to continue and what they use them for) then that would be beneficial. I'm talking to the over 2100 people who haven't responded to this thread.

I also would like the development mailing list to continue. Mainly to get updates about infrastructure changes (e.g., the move to github) and release notes.

Regards,
Mike
