Hi all, I'll try to keep this brief, at least by my standards :)
Firstly, I think it's clear that the discussion is leaning towards implementing Discourse for at least one, and possibly both, of the mailing lists. Many people have contributed - I'd like to thank them all for keeping this from descending into a flamewar :) We do need to give the users list a little longer for feedback (it's only been a week), but I think here we can start to talk about the migration planning. Since we all (or most?) need to start getting used to Discourse, I've written up a draft migration plan there: https://community.theforeman.org/t/draft-migration-plan-theoretical/7550 I've just updated it to reflect the latest discussions. No doubt I have missed something though, so I've made it into a wiki post - feel free to edit with suggestions. There are two things I'd like to get input from people on: # Moderators I need a small team of moderators to deal with running the forum. I don't expect it to take up much time, but it is important that more people than just me know how things work. 3-4 people (including me) is probably enough to start with. So, volunteers needed! Don't make me start picking on people :) # Choice of lists to migrate As above, we have to decide if we migrate both lists or just one. I see significant benefits on having everyone on the same platform (top 2 - the @groups feature is very useful for discussions, and the discoverability of dev discussions for users helps them to get involved and grow our dev community). However, I know others are more cautious than I. Again, since we'll all likely be using Discourse in some capacity, I've gone ahead and created a poll on Discourse for us. Please do leave your feedback! Votes by email-response (here or on Discourse) are of course acceptable for those allergic to UIs, I will add them in ;) https://community.theforeman.org/t/poll-which-lists-should-migrate-to-discourse/7598 I've not covered foreman-announce - we use this so infrequently, and posting rights are heavily restricted, so I think we can decide what to do with it later. Hang in there, we're getting to the fun bit! :) Greg -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "foreman-dev" group.
