You should discuss open the dev mailing list. And I suggest that you start with 
the subject β€œ[DISCUSS] ….”. I don’t think a PIP is needed. The dev list 
preserves the discussion on ASF resources forever.

We have the ability to send GitHub events to a mailing list. Ask on the dev@ 
mailing list to start that discussion.

Anyone can join the dev2 mailing list and at lists.apache.org 
<http://lists.apache.org/> you will find email from 25 years ago. Source 
control was typically CVS back then.
