I think there is some misunderstanding here, caused in part by
unfortunate phrasing by Sergei. They do not suggest to use GH Issues
in place of this list; they suggest the forum. I just tried it and
it's based on Discourse. Now, I won't be the one to defend the virtues
of web forums vs. mailing lists, I'll always prefer a list like
yourself; but I will say, of all the flavors of forums out there,
Discourse is by far the least awful.
