[Product-Developers] This list is moving to community.plone.org (Discourse)

[Martin Aspeli]

So, I think the general problem with this is:

 - Existing developers don't like change / like their consolidated email
interface because they get a million emails per day
 - People who need help can't be bothered to jump through the umpteen hoops
to set up Nabble or subscribe to Mailman / don't want lots of mail in their
inbox after they posted their questions

This impedance mismatch is always going to be a problem. We had the same
concern when we moved a lot of the plone-user type content to
Stackoverflow, though in general I think that's been a positive move. I
hope this will be too. We may just need to decide whether want to require
our users to come to us, or if we want to come to our users, though.
