<div dir="ltr">I am going to try and updating my mail filters so I can get these applications routed into the same folder as the incubation email.

somehow this has slipped our attention. Oskari has filled out the<br>
incubation application form here:<br>

<br>
They also submitted a ticket:<br>

We never seem to have followed up?! They basically already went through<br>
the hard stuff (find all contributors, get license texts sorted out,<br>
CLAs, decision taking, voting, etc.) and are waiting for us to attend to<br>
the process.<br>
<br>
They still have an interesting questions regarding communication which I<br>
suggest should be discussed on this list because it is of common<br>
interest. Specifically: Mailing lists.<br>
<br>
To me it appear that this may be becoming a larger issue anyway and the<br>
Incubator is a good place to talk about this. Lately I am hearing more<br>
and more comments like "Ugh, mailing lists are so 90s" and similar when<br>
giving workshops or talking about how to get involved with an Open<br>
Source project in general. Mailing lists are often seen as this "old<br>
Unix and hacker stuff". Not relevant anymore.<br>
<br>
Thoughts?<br>
<br>
