`preamble-re-discussions-to` only allows links to the Fellowship of Ethereum Magicians forum in the `discussions-to` front matter (or preamble) field.

While GitHub's pull requests are a very convenient place to discuss proposals, they suffer from some drawbacks. Proposals are not completed in a single pull request, so discussion would be fragmented. GitHub has the ultimate say in who uses their platform, while the EIP process should be as open as possible.
