Just some feedback from my side as we were having similar discussions on the 
PLC4X project.

The thing is, if technical discussions are held on GitHub, in PRs or in Jira, 
getting an overview of what's happening requires to register to all of these 
and to continuously monitor all of these systems.

Also did we try out the code reviews of GitHub and had these forwarded to the 
dev list. This resulted in mornings with 100 new emails because every single 
comment to every single line of a PR resulted in a separate Email (not quite 
what we wanted).

So now we're discussing technical things where people should be involved on the 
dev-list and implementation specific stuff we think is not worth wasting the 
other project members time in PRs and Jira issues.

    Hi,
    
    Thanks for the information.
    
    I think the two suggestions are good:
    
    1. Move discussions about big PR or design details to the dev list:
    
    >  If a PR is a big change, or if discussion veers into into design details
    rather than just code, we expect our committers to say "let's move this to
    the dev list".
    
    2. a weekly or monthly report for reporting how many PR or issues are
    resolved is useful.
    
    I think we can try like this for a while to see whether it is useful  :D
    
    Best,
