Let's try to get pragmatic to move this forward: what if we do this: 1) switch forum to read-only 2) mention github as issue tracker (email integration is great) 3) try this e.g. for 3 month If it works out - great. If not, move on to something else. New users will probably not even notice that we are trying out different ways. As I said a while ago, I have some pros and cons with github for questions, but it may work out. What do you think?
