Again: This list was set up to be open, archived, and searchable; there
was never any requirement for security. Anyone may join, and anyone --
including people who are not members of the list -- may read the
archives. We know email isn't secure; we knew that when this list was
set up, but for this particular application, that lack of security is OK.

For LOPSA to spend money requires action on the part of the Board of
Directors, not just a discussion on this list. If you think LOPSA should
spend money on Slack, you would need to make a proposal to the Board --
one that included a cost-benefit analysis; if you can't show that spending
money on Slack to replace the existing mailing lists is 1) good for the
organization and 2) better than the other likely uses of LOPSA's (limited)
funds, you proposal is unlikely to be adopted.
