Re: Discussion board vs. user mailing list in incubating project
Great. It will be up to the Community and the Mentors to determine if any migrations make sense in order to protect the project’s valuable user discussions.

Re: Discussion board vs. user mailing list in incubating project
The question was only about the user discussions (e.g. to replace the user mailinglist). The project will of course have a dev mailinglist with the usual decision making. -s On 16.01.19 16:22, sebb wrote: On Mon, 14 Jan 2019 at 16:19, Matt Sicker wrote: On Mon, 14 Jan 2019 at 07:15, Sebastian wrote: So to rephrase this question, if the project finds a way to archive the discussions to ASF-controlled infra (e.g., to a dedicated mailinglist), than they could keep using the board?

If so, is it documented anywhere? I think that's a better explanation of what I was trying to get at. I'm just remembering something about how when Slack opened up, channels were using an archive bot for a while. -- Matt Sicker - To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org

Re: Discussion board vs. user mailing list in incubating project
So to rephrase this question, if the project finds a way to archive the discussions to ASF-controlled infra (e.g., to a dedicated mailinglist), than they could keep using the board?

Discussion board vs. user mailing list in incubating project
Hi, I recently received a question from a project that is considering to apply to the incubator and I did not know the answer, so I would like to ask for your input on that. The project has a very active web-based discussion board, similar to projects like Apache MXNet on https://discuss.mxnet.io/ or Rust on https://users.rust-lang.org/. However, Apache projects traditionally prefer a user mailing list to web-based discussion boards in my experience. The question is now whether the project would have to migrate the discussion board to the user mailing list during incubation or whether they could keep it. Do we have an official stance on that?
