to be clear, that is part of the "actively maintained" criteria - as those channels are the only contact information given on the project website; this currently fails that criteria just to note, this is another good example of why to avoid using third-party services to host critical infra - the "actively maintained" criteria considers communication to be critical - o/c there is no criteria about using third-party services for that, as long as users do not need to run non-free software to communicate with the project - its just a very good idea i see it as a natural corollary to software freedom; and that is why i would prefer to hold the "complete distro" criteria to it's strict interpretation - software users need to be able to control their own computing - likewise, software projects need to be able to control their own infrastructure, for all of the same reasons
