Hi all,

This mailing list has served us well for the past 8 years. But since a while now, GitHub, where simmer is hosted, supports Discussions, a StackOverflow-like Q&A platform. I would like to encourage new discussions to happen there instead of this mailing list, because it's easier to follow, better organized, it allows us to format code using Markdown, discussions can be promoted to issues... So I think it's a great tool. And you'll see there are a number of discussions already there.

Admittedly, the "barrier to entry" for Discussions is higher, because it requires a GitHub account, while this mailing list requires only an email, but I'd like to propose closing this mailing list in favour of Discussions on GitHub. But before doing that, I'd like to check if someone would see this as a "show-stopper" and strongly prefers the mailing list instead. Please, let me know your thoughts.

Best,
