Hi,

Thanks Peter, very useful. FOr all reasons mentioned here I will keep an 
eye on Discourse and on the new mailing, in order to follow Joanie, the 
community, and GNOME folks too. Not sure the dialog has been always 
fluent about accessibility, but at least we can keep this alive to help.

I just wonder how to handle with the fact before sendint a firt new 
mail, to create a new topic, the first time, one needs to do via the 
web. Once done, and for all future topics, it can be done via mail. But 
just like said Colomban, it is probably a problem for some people. About 
seeing replies and replying, seems to work (if my replies are sent, I am 
not sure actually)

Regards
