It's OK to have the discussions on GitHub, but one of the responsibilities of reviewers is to ensure that significant design decisions are summarised on the related tracker issue for future reference. If GitHub looks like it is at risk of disappearing as a public historical archive at some point in the future (or if the problem bothers someone enough in the meantime for them to spend time on addressing it), then it should be possible to use https://www.githubarchive.org/ to maintain a full streaming mirror of a GitHub repository in a self-hosted GitLab instance. > 3) How can we keep module maintainers and experts in the loop?

As Donald describes, mention-bot should be able to handle this (and more reliably than the nosy list on BPO, since it's based on the actual files touched by a PR).
