Each Discourse category comes with an email endpoint, let's say you want to create a new thread under the Applications category, you can send an email to theapplications discourse gnome org email and it gets automatically posted to Discourse, like you do today with Mailman. In the background we can configure an automatic tag, that is whenever the Evolution or Evo (or anything you prefer) word is mentioned (similar to what happens today with Mailman list name tag on subjects) the "evolution" tag is automatically added to your thread, that eases consumption by your contributors which have watchers defined for the "evolution" tag. I'm more than happy to work with you guys to ease this transition. But please keep in mind that nobody is forcing you to use a web forum, Discourse (NOT Discord) can also work as a plain mailing list (please see Andre's mail [1] around this), so don't be alarmed.
Hi! I'd like to see this automation in action first, if possible. Pete Biggs raises a valid point about the "evolution of Evince" though. Would this be tagged as an Evolution Mail topic then? How "smart" is this automation? What needs to be done/okayed/whatever to have you(?) set this up for us to try out? Before somebody asks, I'm just a lowly enduser and have no idea about automatic tagging on web forums and stuff like that. I just want to use the information available here in a fast and easy fashion. :-) -- Sorin Srbu, Serverdrift Tele: 08-524 84166 Karolinska Institutet Universitetsbibliotek Avdelningen för Verksamhetsstöd Enheten för Teknikstöd och Bildproduktion # They say you can't buy happiness, but you can buy a # motorcycle, and that's pretty damn close!
