I really feel this is missing the point of what I am trying to explain. I agree, email discussions make it a real conversation. But that's not the *only* way to have a conversation about a patch. GitHub is one example of that, where code-specific comments can be sent, and more general discussions can also occur at the same time. This requirement is not difficult to fullfil. What I can understand people being after (at least what I initially mourned) is the convenience of receiving an email when something new happened, and the convenience of being able to just reply to that email to send their comment. But I have found in practice that following the link provided in the email is inconsequential, and in return, the web interface opens doors to lots of things one cannot do with a simple email. There are not a whole lot of hosting platforms out there, so my concern is that, by making email integration a requirement, you're automatically eliminating a number of solutions which could answer your requirements just as well, only just differently, and from there, lose some great features out there. -- Joel
