Not only does this come at very short notice, it is also regrettable, in
my opinion.

GitHub may be a valid choice for your development process, but as a
means of communicating with end users seeking support, mailing lists are
far better suited. User-to-user communication is also better handled
using mailing lists. Also, I find using proper MUAs is much more
efficient than GitHub's web browser UI, and they even work in a TTY
environment with low bandwidth.

Can you not keep the NGINX user mailing list active? That would not
interfere with your developer processes on GitHub.
