Hi, It's worth clarifying that while other mediums can be used to facilitate discussion, all decisions must ultimately be made on the ASF-controlled mailing lists. This ensures transparency, accountability, and long-term accessibility of project decisions.
Email still offers significant advantages over other platforms, including: - Searchability and long-term archival - Asynchronous participation, supporting contributors across time zones and availability - Threaded discussions that help maintain context - Subject lines so you can scan messages - Open access without requiring agreement to third-party terms and conditions - Higher signal-to-noise ratio compared to real-time chat We also have individuals who, for one reason or another, are unable to use or do not use Slack or GitHub.
