Here are my observations: email is a pretty slow way of doing this kind of
thing.  Yes, us old-timers are quite used to it, but it kind of lacks a
"collaborative" feel.

A lot of time this kind of work gets done on various IRC channels.  They at
least (usually) give quicker feedback.

But koobs@ has been putting a lot of effort into getting Discord to be a first-
class interactivity space for FreeBSD.   So, let me suggest trying out one of
the channels there, as see if it's more like what you are looking for.

(disclaimer: I am not saying "this will solve all our problems".  I'm saying that
right now it has momentum and seems worth supporting.)
