Without much study, I agree with Cory. The current e-mail system feels unwieldy and noisy to me, and is hard to search. Furthermore, I find it hard to browse back in time for something I remember, but can’t find the search terms for (and have deleted). Discourse feels closer to our current gitlab bug tracker, which has been very successful. Let a tool manage the mailing list, rather than my inbox.

The integrated search feature is nice to have - I usually resort to searching the ParaView mailing list in markmail's archive, which usually works, but an additional step that wouldn't be needed with an integrated search. Having different categories for beginners, developers, announcements, etc. would be great. You can watch or unwatch different categories, tag posts with keywords, and bookmark certain posts you'd like to revisit. It just seems great all around.

Is it time for ParaView mailing lists to move to Discourse as well? What are people's feelings about it?
