I'm supportive. Don't know if there's consensus yet. Nemo, have you had
any experience using Discourse just via email? Would it work for you
that way? (i.e. then doesn't involve any javascript).
I think I read somewhere recently that Mozilla or someone is supporting
Discourse in improving the mail interface. is that true, anyone know?

Every time I
end up on a discourse website I end up crying.
Last time I checked, it also didn't have particularly good
export
features.
I thought I had added to
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Internet_forum_software but
seems not, maybe was another wiki.
A raw dump (including all metadata) export functionality should be a
hard requirement for any software put into production in Wikimedia.
I absolutely agree. One thing I'd note, too, is that (in my experience
of managing a few over the years) Mailman is anything but easy to
archive well (at least not without server access). I *think* Discourse
has a sensible API, so at least theoretically one needn't leave the
archiving up to the sysadmins.
