Indeed, it has been a mistake to keep spinning off new discussion platforms, in the hope that the next one will be different and controllable and totally replace everything else. This has been an anti-pattern for a decade. Far better to make a real investment (including both a social and a technical investment) in the actual community platforms based on MediaWiki, where many of the ideas that were developed for Space could be rather more fruitfully applied, and the existing eforts by good people not be put to waste.
I completely agree - investing in the core platform the way to go. See you all on-wiki with everyone else?
Thanks, Mike
