I'm a regular user of Slack. I haven't seen such a feed. But more to the point, Slack, the application by itself doesn't pull information from other sources. It's up to the users to pull feeds in. For example there is a new user feed which has a link to the users account and a link to their first edit. -- @osm_washington www.snowandsnow.us OpenStreetMap: Maps with a human touch
