Re: Community discussions

 

I don't see the purpose. Maybe with mainnet release, but for the time being we have relatively active subreddits already, and as it should be most of the discussion is developer oriented and we have solid channels for that. One of the problems with other protocols is too much popularity/speculation before it's due/warranted/developed enough to support it, and I think we should do whatever we can to learn from those mistakes and mitigate them.

My two nanogrin. I think the more under the radar things stay the more they can gestate. And I really don't see what kind of discussion can't happen on the channels we have. I don't know of many other projects have had the kind of organic publicity we already have, I think we should stay technical and low key.

Both this mailing list and gitter are very developer focused (not to mention clunky, when it comes to launchpad). This is not to propose a replacement of what we have now for development, just complement with a platform that's easier to join and more user-friendly.
