(philosophical side note: "consent" is not free of coercion, and thus rather irrelevant, when Github is taking over 90% of Open Source projects.) > [...] Personally, I'm actually quite > happy to have my activities on github correlated with my identity. > (Actually, it's a net plus, not a concession.)

No, I can't (unless I want to play cat and mouse with them, which is no fun). And that is the whole of the problem, as I say in my other message. > However, while "Subscribe to Github" is a perfectly reasonable answer, > and one that would in practice include more people than it would > exclude (compared to our current system, or many alternatives), it's > not like we're going to suddenly refuse all discussions of bugs on the > mailing lists.

As long as the mailing list stays, any concrete difficulty can be solved when it arises through a constructive discussion, so nothing is lost! I trust that Cython won't ever do like some other projects, which have suppressed any kind of non-Github contact channel. That would be the real pain. > Does this alleviate your concerns? Not fully, but I can live with it :-) Baptiste _______________________________________________ cython-devel mailing list cython-devel@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/cython-devel
