GitHub is adding a very interesting new feature: discussions, which we can consider similar to forums, and it brings the feature for filling the current gap when someone fills a question in issues (which I especially hate as some of you know, hehe, as it's not the proper feature for handling that). It even includes an option for converting an issue into a discussion:


Unfortunately, it's still in a closed beta needing an invitation. We (Tecnativa) have asked for inclusion in https://github.com/github/feedback/discussions/24#discussioncomment-119862, and we are already trying it out in https://github.com/Tecnativa/doodba/discussions.

It's worth considering its usage across OCA and maybe ask for beta testing in some of our repos. Some of the actions to perform will be:

- Think in a general way to sort this section.
- Add a possible FAQ.
- Change the OCA website documentation for referring to this.
- Change the OCA README template for redirecting to this section.

Regards.
