I agree with Jakob. Please make these changes. Additionally, I ask that if
any prior discussion on the private Gitter channel culminated in a significant
project decision (design choice, whether or not to commit a pull request,
etc.), then please recap that publicly on ASF infrastructure (mailing list,
JIRA, etc.). If any of the discussion was a PMC decision that legitimately
needed a restricted audience, then please use the private mailing list.

Hey all-
Apparently there is a private channel being used for project
discussion on gitter (the archive would be here:
https://gitter.im/apache/incubator-airflow/Airflow_committers/archives/all,
similar to the public archive of the regular gitter channel:
https://gitter.im/apache/incubator-airflow/archives/all), titled
"Airflow_committers."
As has been discussed before, all non-PMC level ASF communication
*has* to be in a public accessible forum (preferably that is archived
to an ASF list). Even if well intentioned, these channels are
exclusionary and absolutely verboten per ASF.
We need to open or shut that channel down and make sure we note this
on the next IPMC report...
