<p>Hello,</p>
<p>In the last few months I have found it very difficult to keep track of the conversations on this list. I have seen suggestions or questions crowded out by ongoing, broad discussions. I’ve seen a lot of words about theories and philosophies that don’t really relate to a specific tag.</p>
<p>The conversation about consensus is a good example; it’s a valid discussion but the audience that would be interested in it is not necessarily the same as those who are looking for tagging advice.</p>
<p>Until a better communication platform is introduced, I would like to suggest splitting this mailing list into different audiences to facilitate different types of discussion:</p></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>in principle a good idea to split [tagging] into more mailing lists.<br></div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif">
<p>- tagging_help: a place to ask and answer “how do I tag…” questions.</p></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>this kind of question would also be suitable for the help system. There are 2 typical kind of situations:</div><div>a) we do have a documented tag and if it makes sense to all participants, the story ends here, or</div><div>b) we do not have a documented tag, and people start proposing solutions, i.e. it turns into a tag discussion and development thread and should go to tagging_this_list<br></div><div>IMHO a separate mailing list is not needed: nowadays, lots of these are solved on
other channels, like osm forum, irc, telegram, maybe slack, etc. anyways and there is too much overlap with "tagging" in general.</div><div><br></div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif">
<p>- tagging_proposals: pure news feed for proposal announcements. RFC open, vote notifications etc. </p></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>+1, I would call it "tagging-announce", similar to the (very low frequency) announce channel <a href="https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/announce/">https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/announce/</a> or "hot-announce".<br></div><div><br></div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif">
<p>- tagging_strategy: a place to discuss the BIG, thorny issues about tagging.

<p>- tagging: this list.<br></p></div></blockquote></div><div>+1</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>basically 2 new lists, "tagging-announce" for formal announcements (RFC, voting) and "tagging-strategy" for epic threads not relating to specific tagging but to the process and philosophy, the grand scheme</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers,<br></div><div>Martin<br></div></div>
