Re: [orion-dev] Irc?

Might be an opportunity to breath new life into a chat channel using Slack - we could tweet out the info ...

... since many of us are monitoring Slack teams for other things, it'd be natural to an Orion one add alongside the others, although the volume of messages is playing havoc with my battery life, and data limit each day as is ;)

... maybe we could set up a Google form for requests to join the slack channel, or just accept them here? Other ideas?

We have Umar for a couple of days still, before he returns to university ... perhaps he could set something up for us?

A few Orion committers are on #eclipse-orion IRC, but it's usually deader than disco.

Anton and I created a nascent orion slack a few months ago, but it hasn't seen any use yet.

I like slack, but one drawback is the difficulty for new community members to join. Unlike an open IRC channel, slack appears to require admin approval before you can get in. It can be "opened up" a bit by allowing open registration based on email domain, but even then they block common free ones like gmail.com.

Thoughts?

Mark
