Welcome to gr-satellites discussions

[daniestevez]

A few months ago, Github has added support for discussions in repositories.

Moving forward, gr-satellites will use the discussions for the following:

• Project related announcements
• All sorts of general discussion regarding gr-satellites. Since gr-satellites doesn't have any mailing list or forum, I think this will be a good place for the community to gather.
• Ideas for improvement, new features, etc.
• Any sort of questions about the use of gr-satellites or related topics. This represents a large amount of the issues that have been opened so far, but the discussions page seems a better frame for this.
• Cool projects using gr-satellites. Github includes the "Show and tell" category by default, and it seems interesting enough to leave it in.
• Satellite teams. So far satellites teams were using the issues to discuss new features or support required for their mission, but it seems better to have a dedicated discussion category.

The issues will be used for the following:

• Bug reports
• Technical problems, such as installation problems
• Feature requests or ideas for enhancements. While this may have some overlap with the "ideas" discussions, I think that it's best to keep the issues for feature requests that are more concrete and to track the progress of development of new features, and use the issues, and the discussions for more vague ideas.
• Anything else that deals with the code more directly than the topics in the discussions.

TLDR: moving forward the idea is to use discussion for general talk and to keep the issues for matters that are more related to the code itself (and often will have associated commits or pull requests).

I hope that this will improve the way that the users of gr-satellites will interact among themselves and with the project, but only time will tell if this idea turns out to be practical. Let me know your thoughts.
