[DISCUSS] Best place for questions / answers
In this issue https://github.com/apache/incubator-superset/issues/7160
about sorting / closing our PRs and Github issues, there's a subtopic about
how to handle questions.
It'd be nice to separate the channels for:
* announcements / conversations / votes / design reviews / [DISCUSS] (ASF
mailing list!)
* issues / bugs / SIPs (Github!)
* questions / answers (????)
StackOverflow has proven to be a great place for this, it supports voting /
bubbling up top answers, has unbeatable SEO, versioning of answers,
supports rich content (code snippets, screenshots, ...), and gamifies the
whole process.
What's the ASF recommended place for Q/A? Provided a consensus + winning
vote, could we just direct people to StackOverflow?

The feedback on general has been mostly positive, and there doesn't seem to
be any solid policy for or against. You can see the thread at
https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/fc4971196fa9230ceb89deb25ee9a6b136dce06553288d903b5b538a@%3Cgeneral.incubator.apache.org%3E
There's useful feedback in the thread from Julian on using SO to help with
community building and Ted on how to connect it to your user list so people
on one can find things on the other.

I can't see any reason why that would be an issue, but I'll ask on general@
to make sure.

Mentors! As we seem to drift towards a StackOverflow consensus, can we get
an ASF stamp on directing question traffic in that direction?

+1 for Stackoverflow. I think Discourse, Discord, Slack, etc all have the
same discoverability problem.

Re: [DISCUSS] Best place for questions / answers
Posted by Krist Wongsuphasawat <kr...@gmail.com>.
I would prefer not to host the FAQ in mailing list as its discoverability
is low and it is not obvious what is the right answer in long email
thread + what John said.
Discussion like this thread is ok in email format, but asking how to
install something or solve particular problem perhaps is not.
How about setting some deadline so we have a clear plan to move forward.
If hosting product Q&A outside of mailing list OK with ASF, in a week from
now we will vote between using
A. StackOverflow
B. Discourse
Then after the vote is done, we will ask for volunteers to help migrating
the questions to target platform and close the issues on github.
For now, people can discuss and advocate for their choice.

Hi All,
First post here. I have been lurking around for sometime (with the
intention to evaluate Superset someday)
Discourse seems to be the Q&A cool kid these days. Most projects have a
self hosted discourse forum.

Hi,
I’m supportive of using Stack Overflow for Q&A. It’s more discoverable/searchable than email and Slack, encourages community involvement, and helps to mitigate repeated questions.

Q/A related to how to use the product, one can use user@superset.apache.org
mailing list.
This is what I have seen in Geode/Spark projects.
Q/A related to how to develop the product, one can use
dev@superset.apache.org.
