Hi Dan,
As is evidenced by this very discussion, people read and discuss matters on this list. Those who prefer a lower volume of communication can subscribe to the Announce list instead.

I'm not sure that I agree with you. The Board and Lila ignored some inquiries that I made on Meta. Discussions on this mailing list seem to attract at least as much good-faith participation as discussions on
Meta. I
would suggest that inquiries could be made in either venue, and the Board can simply acknowledge and collect them for action during the governance review.
If I'm understanding, you're saying that you've previously left questions on Meta which ended up going unanswered, and therefore you'd prefer to ask questions on this mailing list to increase your chances of a response.
Increasing the number of open channels of communication also increases the burden of monitoring those channels to ensure that nothing goes missing. Therefore, trying to engage in two places will likely increase the chance of something going missing, rather than decreasing. This is likely why Nataliia has asked that feedback be given in a single location, so that she can be sure that she can see any feedback or questions that are given. I would encourage you to try engaging on Meta, as Nataliia suggests, rather than here, to reduce the chances that something goes missing or ignored.
Thanks, Dan
