Hi,
When trying to register, I’ve got the Email, Username and Name filled
out from (most likely) Invent. The fourth field, Invent Profile, is
empty. Could you explain what is the purpose of that field, what one is
expected to type there? Thanks in advance!

As a ~new person~ on KDE, 3 years only, we need to move to a modern web. At
least in my point of view, I really think that using old stuff doesn't
attract new people. In that I have a few ideas for some KDE websites go
modern, but that is a project for the future.

I've made over 4100 forum posts, and I'm certainly a KDE developer.

Hi all,
from what I get from the documentation, discourse has a mailing list mode
which can, from a end user point of view, be used the same as a mailing list.
As in: in a mail client, without additional config that would not be needed
with a ML as well.
So assuming we have

That's a bold claim. At Zalando we have 10,000s of microservices in

Hello,
Although my experience maintaining a full-fledged Discourse deployment is nil
(so I can't speak to that side of the discussion with any authority), I did
install and research Discourse for an experiment with Hispalinux a couple of
years ago.

This would be really cool. I do use the forums a lot but navigating them (if
you re not familiar with phpbb) can be tricky. Discourse is a bit more
intuitive.
