I being a MediaWiki developer see this as a great step forward. Currently
there are too many channels, where the information is all scattered around.
Finding help seems impossible at times on IRC. Mailing lists are difficult
to follow. For search I use a Google so it kind of works, but the archives
are difficult to comprehend. Discourse sounds like a great alternative.
I would also ask if there's a possibility to import content from other
places to the new Discourse site, if that's not too much to ask(fingers
crossed).

As for the "one place" argument,
