Your posts are showing up on the mailing list here just it seems.  I
didn't know there was a Discourse forum.  Is it supposed to be sync with
the mailing list and USENET?  Or is it intended to replace this mailing
list?  I rarely see Python devs on this list, so maybe they've chosen to
hang out exclusively in Discourse, which would be unfortunate.

The Discourse format has never appealed to me. It's way to unstructured
and gamified.  I much prefer the mailing list, but alas it seems like
most open source projects are moving to Discourse.
