Considering the people involved and the nature of the list, I suspect that
adding a new @python.org mailing list would be better than discourse. In my
experience, it's very difficult to just follow a single topic on the discourse,
and most people complain that the e-mail integration is not great. For something
like, "Here's a head's up about something affecting distributors", I don't think
Discourse offers much in the way of advantages.
My guess is that distributors would be happiest with a relatively low-volume
e-mail list that would point to discussions happening elsewhere (or that
announces changes relevant to distributors).
I totally agree with that. Following a mailing list is simple. Following a
category on discuss.python.org not so much.
I understand the argument that mailing lists are weird for new contributors
etc., but I guess that distributors need to know how to handle mailing lists
already anyway.
