Hi Isabel, My apologies that not saying that clearly.
The purpose of this proposal is encouraging more contributors to help review and merge PRs. And also hope to shorten the time for a PR to be merged. After assigning maintainers to modules, then PR contributors can easily contact the reviewers. In other words, github will automatically assign the PR to the maintainer and send a notification email. I don't think I put the term "inbox" in my proposal. I never discussed PRs with other contributors by sending email directly, which is less effective than just using github. I also don't aware any other contributor use the direct email way. So I didn't clarify it on the proposal. On Tue, Jan 9, 2018 at 11:47 AM, Isabel Drost-Fromm <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Am 9.
