I agree: the limiting factor is everybody's time. Technology doesn't help much in this respect. I am afraid that if we add a slack channel, we are just going to get much dilution. I don't see what killer feature that slack has that would suddenly make it that knowledgeable people have more time.
In order to make the best use of my personnal time, I must admit that I stick to a rule: github is where I spend my time.
