Hey everyone,

As part of PEP 588, migrating bugs.python.org issues to Github, there
are two current mailing list related items that need a replacement or
need to be turned down.

1. Weekly summary emails with bug counts and issues from the week,
example: https://mail.python.org/archives/list/pytho...@python.org/thread/JRFJ4QH7TR35HFRQWOYPPCGOYRFAXK24/

2. Emails sent to the new-bugs-announce and python-bugs-list for new
issues and comments to existing issues.

I wanted to quickly gauge if anyone is relying on these mailing
lists/emails or if it's a convenient part of your workflow. Feel free
to chime in here or on the migration issues directly with your
use-case:

1. https://github.com/psf/gh-migration/issues/6
2. https://github.com/psf/gh-migration/issues/7

Thanks,
Ammar

Essential for my current non-IDLE contributions. I get this every
Friday about noon US Eastern and usually use it for a few hours of
tracker triage later that day and maybe into Saterday. I usually close
at least one issue each week, as either rejected or fixed.

I rely heavily on the new-bugs-announce list, and the email sent by
Roundup to people on the Nosy list of a task.

I don't care about the weekly summary emails.

I don't know what the python-bugs-list is used for.

Not really, but they present some nice statistics.

I rely on python-bugs-list and have a filter on that to trigger
on keywords I'm interested in. The list gets all updates for all
RoundUp bugs.

Hi Ammar,

These emails annoy me. I learnt to mark them as read, as soon as I receive them.

I prefer to pick my favourite bugs directly at bugs.python.org and
then follow email notifications. Well, I'm already getting too many
notifications in general :-)

I don't know these lists.

Thanks for working on this!

I rely on both these. They help improve signal-to-noise and make it
easier to quickly get back up-to-date if I'm out for a while.

As part of PEP 588, migrating bugs.python.org issues to Github, there
are two current mailing list related items that need a replacement or
need to be turned down.

1. Weekly summary emails with bug counts and issues from the week,
example: https://mail.python.org/archives/list/pytho...@python.org/thread/JRFJ4QH7TR35HFRQWOYPPCGOYRFAXK24/

2. Emails sent to the new-bugs-announce and python-bugs-list for new
issues and comments to existing issues.

I occasionally rely on these. Those weren't noise to me.

I assume new instructure might bring other benefits, so we won't be certain if we will need these new-bugs-announcements emails.
Or those might be replaced with something better.

Thank you,
Senthil
