I believe indeed that the devguide should provide complete guidance towards getting a python-dev equivalent using mailing-list mode, to avoid many users having to reinvent the wheel. I don't have enough experience to give such advice myself (yet). > But I don't think the goal is to make sure all people using the mailing > list get the same set of posts. Different people have different interests. That's exaggerated: often many people share common interests, and thus want to follow a common set of discussions. This is what makes up a discussion forum. Python-dev has served well its hundreds (or is it thousands) of users over all those years, so its perimeter must be sensible enough. > Only mirroring/archiving Core-Dev + PEPs also seems pretty arbitrary. According to the devguide, "these are the Discourse equivalents to the python-dev mailing list". I believe many people want just that. This is also the perimeter that makes most sense for long term external archival, as it is likely to contain all major design discussions. >> * RSS: the shortcomings I described in my august post [2] are still >> there.

Discourse could indeed make their RSS interface much friendlier. Alas, as I say in my previous message, a very useful feature request (per-category post feeds) has been lingering for 6 years. So I won't hold my breath. In the meantime, I suppose Discourse must have some instance configuration knobs, and it would make sense that the length of the RSS files can be changed there (being a very arbitrary limit). The PSF could then choose a more appropriate length just for their own instance (the current 25-post limit represents less than 24 hours; a few days instead would be nice). > I guess the mailing list mode is a better option if you don't want to > miss anything. Is it lacking something that RSS provides, besides easier > filtering? There is room between not missing anything and having less than 24 hours of history available. Since you asked (but not a major point): RSS is accessible without registering an account.
