I just consider several slack groups as a way of life now
(unfortunately). But using the integrations with IRC or the Desktop
app...it doesn't even phase me anymore; it's all consolidated and is
nearly the same as starting up my IRC client and connecting to different
channels across Freenode and OFTC.
The web and mobile interfaces are somewhat unpleasant with multiple
communities, but I don't see that as a show-stopper.

So we want to have a presence on Slack in order to reach users and

sense if several of us are willing to log into the channel every
day.
Who's up for it? Note that you can use many IRC clients to log
in, once
you've set up an account.
As someone involved with the community please don't set up a new
slack group. I already have 7 slack groups and it is very annoying
to have to join another one for each project I want to be a part of.
Each one has different level of activity and rules for engagement
(when to use @channel, if you can post to #general, who can create
rooms, etc.)
More arguments can be found at

I could see atomic having a sig-* group in the k8s slack or maybe a
separate atomic-* heading to rooms but a new slack instance would be
annoying. Being a part of the k8s slack could also help users
leverage more general information from a broader community.
Do we need a level of awareness for parts of the project that aren't
directly involved with Kube?
