First, I’d like to move the Changes discussion. They will still be

which seems reasonable.
I think this is a great place to start. If it works, wonderful. If it
doesn't work, then we can delay/abort/redesign any later steps.
Second, I think other FESCo-related conversations should move. I
hope
this will reduce the urge to have back-and-forth exchanges in the
tickets. For the Fedora Council, I set up a bot which automatically
creates a discussion topic when a ticket is filed, leaving the ticket
just for votes and recording of outcome. FESCo could use something
similar.
Could we instead have a poll which is open only to members in a FAS
group and tally those votes? I guess this would be useful for other
things too. (E.g. as a replacement for blocker-review [1]).

And finally… shut down the devel list itself. Perhaps at the end of
2023?
That seems way too early. Let's not plan for this until it is clear
that we can do that without losing contributors.
We should also shut down all of the little lists that haven’t had
anything but spam in the last two years. We could maybe do that sooner.
We should stop creating new lists now — we can create new Discussion
tags instead.
Ack. There's also
https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/2982 on the same topic
now.
For right now, though: let’s discuss — on the list!
Thank you for this detailed proposal. I think it was very clear and
even and written in a way that led the discussion in good directions.
