I completely agree. For the PMPC campaign I thought about using
Discourse to be more open to non-technical people (who often prefer
mailing lists, like I do) but the platform wasn't ready for a
"production" usage yet. If we have a bunch of people using (and testing
and error reporting) such a service, I think the move to make it more
official is easier.

I like the idea of including a banner or another kind of note at the top
of the page with the information that this isn't "official" yet. It may
also motivate users to create bug reports.

Best,
Max
