In this change, it states the non-use of existing and official communication tools as to be "cumbersome". See my comment on PS1, I thought the original concern was technical. Why are we discussing about WeChat now ? Is that because a large set of our contributors *can't* access IRC or because they *prefer* any other ? In the past, we made clear for a couple of times why IRC is our communication channel. I don't see those reasons to be invalid now, but I'm still open to understand the problems about why our community becomes de facto fragmented. -Sylvain > -- > Jeremy Stanley > __________________________________________________________________________ > OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) > Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe > http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev >
