I feel like using the mailing list fails at solving one concern that is
discoverability of WIP problems for people to show up and help tackle
them, even if they were abandonned by the people who started them. Not
everyone can handle the load of incoming mail in the ML. On the GNOME
40 upgrade for example I linked the mailing list thread on the wiki
page also. The wiki page is also more likely to get outdated if it
doesnt have great visibility on the GNU Guix official website, that,
for sure.
