So slack has these cool features: code snippet support, file transfers, personal history (see what you missed), plugins support (for jenkins, etc). But we advertise in hbase book that we have an irc channel ( http://hbase.apache.org/book.html#trouble.resources.irc, http://hbase.apache.org/book.html#irc). Which should we choose going forward?
The main goal is to hangout in a room so that it's easy to ping people for short discussions/clarifications.
