Voting isn't an instrument to use continuously and it seems this won't be a conflictive point anyway. I was actually concerned that this decision is being taken 2 nesting levels into an email thread that touches on 4 other points. I would prefer a top level thread: whether a DISCUSS or a VOTE thread, I don't actually care. The important thing is to announce that this discussion/decision is taking place and not keep it buried inside a wider thread. In fact, the choice of Slack vs. IRC is actually an important topic. Other non-ASF projects have reported higher user engagement since they migrated from IRC to Slack. That's why I think it's a milestone and it should receive due exposure. Anyway, I'm happy if you guys are happy like this ;-) Regards, *Raúl Kripalani* Apache Camel PMC Member & Committer | Enterprise Architect, Open Source Integration specialist http://about.me/raulkripalani | http://www.linkedin.com/in/raulkripalani http://blog.raulkr.net | twitter: @raulvk
