Hi Folks, We are thinking of improving community communication, and here is a list of things we propose to do (some of them are already available).
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/HUDI/Community+Communication While we have a few things proposed, we plan to prioritize the following two features to hopefully ease communication. We plan to extend the current hudi bot (slack app) to implement the features. 1. As you are aware, we have 2 mailing lists: *dev* and *users*. To make it easier for users to get these updates on a single platform (slack), we propose to enhance hudi-bot to mirror the emails from the 2 mailing lists and post them into respective slack channels (*#dev* and *#users*). The sync will happen in near-real-time (a few mins). To ease readability, an email thread will be synced as a single slack thread, i.e., the replies on an email will be synced as replies on the slack channel to the original post. 2. It is often hard to catch up on historical slack messages. To ease catching up on slack messages (*#general*) in the past few days, we will further extend the functionality of the hudi bot to read all the slack messages of a day, format them, and send them as a single email digest to the *dev* mailing list. Please let us know what you think of this proposal, and feel free to raise concerns if any. Thanks, Rajesh
