The boiler plate asking for feedback via GH and the Status section 
asking for feedback via p-webapps is certainly suboptimal. AFAIK, 
PubRules mandates the comment list. If we can't get that restriction 
lifted, I recommend the relevant text in the SotD clearly state using GH 
for comments/bugs/issues is *strongly preferred* and the list should 
only be used as a `last resort`.


(FYI, all of WebApps' GH activity is mirrored to [p-w-gh], thus all I18n 
activity can be found in the archive, f.ex. via [i18n].)

As far as I know, you can watch individual issues with GitHub, so you could
create a GitHub account with that email address and then watch relevant
issues. Also it would mean that an email would be sent if someone mentioned
the user (ie @www-international) in any issue

Re: I18N comments on "Manifest for Web applications"

is it possible to send mail to www-internatio...@w3.org each time 
someone adds somethign to the github issue? (this is the list where we 
track and discuss issues).


if so, i see no real difference between using github or bugzilla – our 
process is designed to cope with both bugzilla and email based comments 
(though it would normally be better to start with the right one rather 
than switch part way, so changing the SOD would indeed help).

I know you're using GitHub. However, whenever I'm filing/forwarding
comments on a document on behalf of the Working Group, I always look at
the SOTD in the document in question to see what instructions the receiving
WG has. In this case, you have a fairly generic SOTD, which says in part:

Hello Webapps,

As previously mentioned, I am about to send you comments from the
Internationalization Working Group on your document (whose current

will be sending each comment under separate cover. The I18N WG is
always happy to discuss our comments or ways to address same. Please
let me know if you prefer to receive comments in a different format
(such as Bugzilla) or if you need additional information.

If you want to see a summary of our comments, you can find them

Hi Kenneth,

Thanks for the reply.

I know you're using GitHub. However, whenever I'm filing/forwarding comments on 
a document on behalf of the Working Group, I always look at the SOTD in the

case, you have a fairly generic SOTD, which says in part:
