Eh, but the traditional Fedora community has a pretty high level of, hmm..how
to describe it...people likely to be "power email" users, the types of people
who know how to set up email filtering, may even run their own email servers in
2019, etc. That said I think Discourse is "okay enough" for those people,
even though it's more "web page" than "email list" (where as mailman 3 is more
the other way around).

We already have too many channels, adding more isn't going to help. The
existing lists aren't high traffic, and my high level impression is the people
posting here are going to be fine with Discourse.
The reason I mentioned commons Slack first is because it's the primary
entrypoint, and I think Discourse is a better *primary* entrypoint.
(And not responding directly to Neil here) - Let's please keep proposals for
any changes to the *real time* stuff like Slack/IRC out of this discussion
because I'd like to focus on a clear and "direct" goal (Discourse replacing
mailman) - anything else scope creeps this a lot.
