Hi all,

I'd love to move to single option too - to keep to our
open-source-project roots, my vote is for using the mailing list.

However, the roadblock here is that our developers would need to be able
to email patches in an acceptable format, and I don't think many of our
contributors have to tools and/or infrastructure to do that at the
moment. If that were to be addressed, I think mailing-list based
workflow would be a great benefit to the project.

Regards,


Jeremy
