Discourse. This apparently is a decision made by the Gnome Foundation
and has caused a good deal of consternation on at least some of said
lists. I speak mainly for the Evolution list but I think the same is
true on at least some others. Some of the discussion can be seen at:
Python dev moved to discourse and that move has also seen push back from folks that
prefer
email to a website.
My personal experience is that
https://discuss.python.org works well and I'm not
missing the
python email lists (that are still going). I like that I can use markup to put code into
messages
that is not so well supported in email. I also like that I can follow more categories
without having
to do the email subscribe dance.
The majority of user questions are on the website not email. It seems that people are
voting with
their clicks.
I only have to login to one site and all the python categories, users, ideas, dev and more
are all
there.
I have also logged in to the fedora version
https://discussion.fedoraproject.org. At the
moment
the topics in email are the more interesting.
