Clearly, a website update is necessary [...]
I agree. Given the number of users I encountered lost*** on spaces (Gitter, Slack) of Geometry or GIL libraries asking for general Boost or library-specific directions, that I have helped lately, tells me t is not too easy (esp. for newcomers) to figure where ask for help and report problems too. *** Two days ago, a user interested in Boost.Graph was asking questions on Gitter room of Boost.Geometry. Now, if it is easier to find that Gitter room than Boost mailing list or Graph's issues, then something is wrong indeed about the Boost frontdoor signs.
how do we feel about a transition to forum-based discussion instead of the mailing list?
I like mailing lists, but I understand NKOTB-s may prefer the web. How about the GitHub Discussions? How many Boost libraries have enabled them? Has it attracted the discussions? Best regards, -- Mateusz Loskot, http://mateusz.loskot.net
