I think we are all in agreement here, so let's move on with: -consolidate #cloudstack and #cloudstack-dev (who can do that ? ) -let's try to be more present on IRC (that's for everyone ) -let's try to setup some slack/IRC proxy so that folks who are using Slack right now can make the IRC folks be

Remi, The fact that a chat channel is limited to those with an @apache.org account and requires knowing who to ask for invitation runs counter the Apache Way. Chat channels should be open and discoverable by all. I am with Nux, -1 for anything like Hipchat, Slack, etc. If some folks prefer S

Erik, I don’t think measuring current #cloudstaack-dev activity is relevant. A number of developers have been experimenting with Slack which would naturally decrease activity. The question for the community is which means should we all use going forward, and deprecate the other. For me, wile

+0 Email and MLs are going to stay, so for IMs and chatting we can use one or more of such tools. I like Slack, the searchable history and whatnot, but I think realtime communication in general may face the same problems as with using IRC. Another issue with using tools like slack, hipchat etc.

What if we use the best of both worlds, by using something like [1]? We obviously need to dive a bit into this and see how well it works. There might be alternatives. The benefit of such a solution would be that if you could see messages on IRC in Slack and v.v. that would make them more visible

All, For me, the most significant issues with IRC is that there is no searchable history, backlog to catch up when offline, or good mobile clients (yes, mobile IRC clients exists, but work poorly in my view). While some of these solutions can be solved by running an IRC proxy such as znc or us

Hi folks, IRC has been mostly deserted for a while now. But there are still folks hanging out there with unanswered questions. I also know of several slack channels on cloudstack. We need to take a decision here. Shall we officially abandon IRC and out a notice there that points towards Slack.
