If this list was much more active, outside of this single email
thread, I could understand the desire of something real time
communication. However, Dr. Hipp seems very busy so he likely wouldn't
be able to have continuous conversations. Most of those who know
Fossil/sqlite inner workings well are across the world in different
time zones, and they're not available all of the time. I'm perfectly
happy as a user of fossil to write an email, post it and hope someone
will take the time to respond to the post.

Knowing this mailing list is less than 1000 people, I'm happy to be an
elite member with such intelligent, now anonymous, people. Whoever you
are--thank you and let's work on making Fossil great again. ;)

In the end if I were to chose real time communication on an open
source project, I'd prefer IRC.

By the way, there's stackoverflow.com with a fossil section:

Enjoy the weekend!
