The plan is to migrate to Mailman 3 when its ready, but the last few passes at it, they were not ready to migrate from older installs.  If thats ready, we can move that up the infrastructure priority list.  If anyone wants to do the research on if thats ready, i’d be happy to hear the findings.

If people more easy can search/browse for answers then less questions will be generated. I don't see a big and viable community as FreeSWITCH deserves IMO and I am certain of getting a online community board will increase the community in that sense. This is one of the first things I look for when getting a new component or trying to find help. I am still a beginner of FreeSWITCH even though I've followed the project for years and I know a community board would help me and most likely others.

If you, like me, don't even know if this is a mistake by myself and get this kind of answer I really hesitate to ask.
