[Jython-users] the health of Jython

[Mike R. <mro...@ya...>]

I love Jython ... and I think you people who develop it are geniuses.
But just looking at the archives for this mailing list tells its own story.  In the early years you see hundreds of posts a month sometimes... in the whole of March this year there was precisely ONE post.
As I understand it, Jython was quite actively developed in its early years, and then went a bit quiet, but is now getting developed quite actively (no doubt Jython 3 will provoke some more interest).  And yet there is nothing but this mailing list to pose questions, etc.
Does no-one here think that a mailing list as the centre of the Jython community is slightly anachronistic in 2016?  Wouldn't a simple forum tend to encourage new users to sniff out the power of the language?
The goodness of Jython should be evangelised!  Apparently a lot of new programmers are being introduced to programming through CPython ... shouldn't the poor kids be learning Jython instead?

Just a thought!Mike
