Re: [DISCUSS] Change of the official CHAT channel
Hi all, My 2 cents: I fully agree on promoting the mailing lists as the main communication channel. However, I think it will be good to drop IRC and promote the current Slack channel as it is active and with a considerable amount of users (+150 members vs ~30 in the IRC channels). Personally, I have joined the Slack channel a few years ago and have seen new users joining the channel and asking questions. My point is, if we already have this channel working good without "official" promotion, then why not use it as the official 'chat' channel?

Re: [DISCUSS] Change of the official CHAT channel
I'm inline with that Paul - let's then remove the IRC being mentioned on main website and any future events. Makes sense? We can keep Slack as it is now, and then definitely (in my opinion) NOT move to ASF Slack, since as someone mentioned it's a pain to move all users. Does this sounds good to majority here? If so, I would cast a vote thread for removal of IRC from any public pages/website/future events marketing.

RE: [DISCUSS] Change of the official CHAT channel
I don't think that we should be 'marketing' anything other than the mailing lists.That is where most people can be found and where previously asked questions can be searched for. Having a ready to roll 'chat' tool has many advantages, so I'm cool with having one in the back pocket. But personally I'd like to see as little fragmentation of the community as possible. + a new visitor turning up to a slack channel with 4 people on it is not going to give a positive impression, and that person is definitely is far less likely to get an answer to any question that they have.

Subject: Re: [DISCUSS] Change of the official CHAT channel Hello folks, I see no problem with using chat platforms. The mail should stay as the default communication tool indeed, but several times I used Slack when helping foes around, raising questions, and pinging folks on private chat. As far as we have tools and they are being used by the community I see no problem with keeping them around. However, I think that the main point raised by Andrija is regarding the "marketing" of the channels. We normally promote IRC (pointing to irc.freenode.net), but CloudStack IRC channels look pretty dead, especially considering that it is the "official" ACS chat tool. Does promoting all channels (IRC + Slack) look a good idea? Should we keep only one option? In one hand, IRC currently is not as active as Slack, but on the other hand, Slack requires an invitation e-mail. Regards, Gabriel.

RE: [DISCUSS] Change of the official CHAT channel
Personally, I agree with Nux, I could live without yet another communication medium that I have to check. So I would prefer the searchable medium of the mailing lists with the fall back of maybe Slack for group calls or chats if really required. Given the worldwide time zones we cover, real-time conversations are automatically going to exclude a large number of people. The conversation threading in email clients allows me to see the subject of a conversation and decide if can or want to join in. paul.an...@shapeblue.com www.shapeblue.com Amadeus House, Floral Street, London WC2E 9DPUK @shapeblue -Original Message- From: Andrija Panic Sent: 22 August 2019 19:28 To: Nux!
