Gitlab and mailing list isn't very clean (Jacek, Rémi, Alex). We can make some tweaks, or use a separate list, or even rethink the approach of the mail gateway.
I'd be in favor of a new mailing list for this. I think all this noise on wine-devel has stopped all other technical discussion here. With the communication being done in Gitlab itself. I know some deplore web interfaces, so we will need need to keep some form of terminal based communication for them.
For what it's worth, as someone who will not use the Gitlab UI, I don't "deplore web interfaces"; some work quite well for me. The problem is that Gitlab's web interface is terrible, borne out of mobile-first and "flat" UI—too much junk in the screen, too much padding, controls on every side of the screen without any pattern, incomprehensible symbols in place of words, infinite scrolling, sluggish and memory-heavy JavaScript...
If someone were to design a reasonable UI for Gitlab, I would probably use it. Since the switch is inevitable I may end up wasting some of my time doing so myself.
