While I agree having a better way to post from a web browser would certainly increase the message count, I can't foresee by how much. And the demand for this definitely not uniform across lists: we have closed lists like announce@ were it doesn't make sense, dev/qa/infra-oriented lists where the demand is likely (own gut feeling) low, and other lists like discuss@ and users@ where it probably makes more sense. (Of the 33 nabble submissions mentioned previously, I count 15 to users@, 11 to doc@ and 7 to discus@ — incl. 6 subscription requests and also counting the localized lists.) Once we have agreed on which Q&A / discussion platform to adopt we can consider (assuming its email feature is sensible, which appears to be the case for Discourse) ditching some lists and using said platform instead. (Sounds less hackish than plain bridging to me.) We don't need a “one-size fits all” solution for our communication channels, but I'd much rather rebalance them over services we already have than switching over to yet another new tool and start yet another migration. -- Guilhem. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/website/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy
