I think a reasonable proposal would be to move the Dev group to GitHub discussions:
* The developer community is already on GitHub because it's where the core development happens * Google Groups doesn't serve the developer community very well, lacking syntax highlighted code blocks, and the ability to reference existing issues and PRs * Switching the Dev Google Group to read-only and redirecting to GitHub discussions would give us useful experience for any subsequent move of the main discussion group I don't see much point in just enabling discussions on the TW5 repository without purposely establishing the community there. People can experiment with discussions on other repositories.
