Re: [DISCUSS] Change of the official CHAT channel

2019-08-25 Thread Nicolas Vazquez
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?

Nicolas Vazquez

Re: [DISCUSS] Change of the official CHAT channel

2019-08-23 Thread Andrija Panic
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.

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.

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.

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

Re: [DISCUSS] Change of the official CHAT channel

2019-08-23 Thread Rohit Yadav
All,

I think email is the more persistent form of communication and it must continue 
to be the default communication mechanism for the project dev+user+etc.

For a more real-time/transient communication, IRC or slack are good tools. I 
don't have any preference on either, as I'm not an active user on either of 
them. It just happened that someone asked me to join the-asf slack for some 
other group, and I saw many projects having their channels there and I made a 
comment about it on our current apachecloudstack community slack which is 
outside of the-asf group. I've got both of them setup on my desktop slack now, 
if it's too difficult to migrate everyone from the old slack group to the-asf 
slack group, let's continue as is; or perhaps add an IRC-gateway between the 
two.

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.

Re: [DISCUSS] Change of the official CHAT channel

2019-08-22 Thread Nux!

I'm heavily against Slack or any other proprietary, closed solutions.

I think it's a step back generally for the Internet at large and even 
more so for an open source project; I can't reconcile the two in my 
heart.


Having said that, I believe the chat is dead not because it's IRC, but 
because people prefer async comms (ie email). It'll be the same for 
Slack.



We should be promoting the mailing lists. They are active and the 
archives are open to search engines etc and can further provide helpful 
information to everyone.


I won't -1 the decision, I don't want to be in the way of "progress", 
but it's not a +1 either. I won't be using it.

Hi guys,

would

this on all event pages and main web site) to that new CloudStack

i.e. on this year conference page (http://us.cloudstackcollab.org/) we
currently announce the IRC channel (???) to be the one (and AFAIK it's

I joined with apache email no problem.

Please all remember that Slack (like IRC before it) can only be for 'chat', all 
'business' must take place on the mailing list.

Maybe we can change this. I know I was in this slack channel since 2015 and I

We have two slack channel at the moment? Where they come from?

Re: [DISCUSS] Change of the official CHAT channel

2019-08-22 Thread Andrija Panic
I agreed with that Paul, but what Rohit mentioned (on our current Slack
channel) is that some people joined with non-Apache email addresses, just
they need an invitation (which is the case with our current Slack channel
as well).

(Actually, I also wasn't able to login to ASF slack with my @apache.org
email address (checked my credentials, can access other Apache services))

@Rohit Yadav   would be good to confirm this one
please ^^^

The ASF-slack page says that you need an apache email address to get an

Subject: [DISCUSS] Change of the official CHAT channel

Hi guys,

Since IRC is pretty dead, and we already have a Slack channel ( 
https://apachecloudstack.slack.com ) that we use atm, AND since there seems to 
be an official ASF slack channel at https://the-asf.slack.com/, I would like to 
open a discussion of the idea to "officially"  move (i.e. marketing this on all 
event pages and main web site) to that new CloudStack channel on the official 
ASF slack account/page - and abandon (close for good) all others chat channels.

i.e. on this year conference page (http://us.cloudstackcollab.org/) we 
currently announce the IRC channel (???) to be the one (and AFAIK it's pretty 
dead) - so I would propose to move forward and update this, so the users can be 
aware of "alive" chat channel

Suggestions, opinions ?

Regards,

Andrija Panić
