Haven't seen much suck with our test Mattermost server. In case you missed
it:

    //https://mattermost-test.eclipse.org/eclipse

Had some great discussions with the CDT crew. And we have a channel
alerting us to forum postings. There's Jenkins plug-ins we can use to see
build issues, etc. It's like Slack but open and self-hosted.

Last I checked (and every time I check) there wasn't one that I found
decent.

We're going to make a big push with Mattermost in the Eclipse community.
You'll find me there.
