gRegor Looks good. "We're beyond mailing lists" still sounds kind of condescending to me. I think the following sentences work great to describe why we find chat more productive.
#
gRegor So I think the answer works even just dropping "We're beyond mailing lists"

#
[tantek] thanks for the review gRegor. ^ removed the "beyond" wording, added some more positive reasons / encouragements instead
#
[tantek] SWICG is enough of a "relief valve" if (when?) we get folks showing up that demand a mailing list
#
[tantek] I think this warning is accurate (feel free to offer counter-evidence): "be forewarned, most of the traffic and content is theoretical & aspirational, and not directly related to anything the authors are themselves building and using for their own social web presence."
#
[tantek] this page / rest of this page still needs a bunch of gardening but I can get to that later: https://indieweb.org/Social_Web_Working_Group#Social_CG
#
[tantek] (e.g. creating a separate page)
