+1 Can someone point me to the slack channel?
I agree that it’s hard to get a handle on where things stand and how decisions are being made based on the mailing list traffic. I see the “heron-users” google group is still active, I don’t see any reason to delay closing that down in favor of the user@ mailing list. Right now I don’t see the level of collaboration I would hope for, but I might just be missing what’s going on in slack. Regardless, collaboration on slack should be secondary to the mailing lists, and all decision making should really be done via the mailing lists. -Taylor > On Oct 10, 2017, at 11:07 AM, Jacques Nadeau <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hey guys, I think it would be worthwhile to provide some additional flavor > around the SGA/ICLA discussions in the report.
