Re: Zulip & Slack
Hi Dmitri
I got your point, and we have a bit of activity on Zulip.
However, without judging the "features" of each chat service, the fact
is that Slack is more "popular" for the Polaris/Iceberg ecosystem.
Also, we are talking about chat service here, not an alternative to
the mailing list: it's more short term discussions or help. Any longer
discussion should happen on the mailing list. A lot of Apache projects
are actually using two mailing lists: dev for
contributions/code/design discussion, user for end-user asking for
help or guidance.
Maybe we should update Bylaws allowing anyone to create channel on
Slack (to have separate/specific discussions).
Regards
JB

Hi,
It looks like we have a consensus. I looped with the PPMC. I will
update the website and Slack configuration to reflect chat bylaws.
Regards
JB
