I registered. Thank you for setting that up. I agree with Jonathan that since
debian-vote is the official forum for election-related discussion, we should
keep the discussion here.

Some people will like discourse and some people don't, but I would welcome
experimentation, including a fully backed-up highly-available Debian instance
for those who wish to use it. Looking to the future, I would say we should only
make it the default if there is consensus to do so. At this time, I don't
believe there is a consensus to do so.

I think perhaps one approach towards building consensus, might be to look at
new lists going forward first. IE: Make it an option for those who might
otherwise request a list.

Cheers,
Brian
