 The vast majority of communication occurs in the open on our

-## Questions?
+We use the Slack and Discord platforms for informal discussions and 
coordination. These are great places to
+meet other contributors and get guidance on where to contribute. It is 
important to note that any technical designs and
+decisions are made fully in the open, on GitHub.
 
-### Mailing list
+Most of us use the `#arrow-datafusion` and `#arrow-rust` channels in the [ASF 
Slack workspace](https://s.apache.org/slack-invite) .
+Unfortunately, due to spammers, the ASF Slack workspace requires an invitation 
to join. To get an invitation,
+request one in the `Arrow Rust` channel of the [Arrow Rust Discord 
server](https://discord.gg/Qw5gKqHxUM).

+## Mailing list
+
+We also use arrow.apache.org's `dev@` mailing list for release coordination 
and occasional design discussions. Other
+than the the release process, most DataFusion mailing list traffic will link 
to a GitHub issue or PR for discussion.

 When emailing the dev list, please make sure to prefix the subject line with a
 `[DataFusion]` tag, e.g. `"[DataFusion] New API for remote data sources"`, so
 that the appropriate people in the Apache Arrow community notice the message.

Review Comment:
   this hasn't happened for many months, so I think we should remove mention of 
it on the site
