I agree. I think the mailing-list format is an anachronism. I would like to rebrand Boost and the website to be a more comprehensive social media site with an emphasis on C++. Instead of a mailing list, it should have a forum. And reviews would take place there. For example each reviewed library would be its own sub-forum to hold the review (and subsequent discussion and support if the library is accepted), using a threaded discussion format.
I'd say forums are now anachronism too. I'd prefer if boost used some ActivityPub compatible platform like Mastodon or Pleroma instead.
