notifications for anything in the Apache org and rely entirely on
emails sent to either dev@ or commits@ or whichever list a project
uses for notifications. While you can reply to a commit email from

Yep.
The Apache Git Service emails have no chances to work. You have to
subscribe to the project notification by creating an account in GitHub and
providing the email address where you will receive notifications. It
would not be possible otherwise by GitHub to know who you are (you receive

I agree with Ted Liu that many projects need a free way to
communicate, but also to be common (English) and public.
SO I think github discussions are a very good choice.

To repeat what I have written elsewhere on this topic in the past:
Project communication channels should be:
- Public. The decision making process should be open and visible to
everyone. It should also be easy for people to find.
- Searchable. So anyone can look-up past discussions.

For me (and I think I speak for a number of Airflow people) slack is great
to keep casual discussions, help users with troubleshooting or do some
brainstorming, and also to make announcements and ask people for opinions.
But it's non-public by default and not easy to find stuff.

centered around mailing lists it has become apparent in recent
years that some of our communities (especially younger ones)
prefer using alternative channels of communication. The range
