I confess that I don't even know how to subscribe to all threads of a discourse.
- [ ] How to subscribe to all threads of discourse So, I'd miss security or release announcements only posted to discourse and not distutils-sig (or pypa-dev, which IMHO has the more appropriate scope name in that packaging and PyPI are somewhat inseparable) Is there some convenient way to cryptographically-sign Discourse posts? Maybe with e.g. OpenPGP.js? Or is that unnecessary these days. Discourse in Python would be great to have. https://github.com/discourse/discourse (Rails) https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman https://gitlab.com/mailman/postorius (Django) Having mailing list discussions archived in one's searchable inbox is underrated, IMHO Being able to link to specific messages within a thread using permalinks is very useful; though most won't even read it On Thu, Jul 30, 2020, 8:24 AM Jeremy Stanley <fu...@yuggoth.org> wrote: > On 2020-07-30 11:51:24 +0100 (+0100), Paul Moore wrote: > [...] > > 1.
