Should we have a Gluster Community slack team? I'm interested in
everyone's thoughts on this.


As fancy as Slack is, I really don't like how dependant so many projects have become on it, it's not open source, the desktop client is dreadful (heavy _javascript_ webframe), you're at the mercy of the companies decisions around the direction of their 'black box' software platform etc...

Personally I've found that discourse is a fantastic platform for project discussion, help and ideas: https://discourse.org

and for chat I've found that if IRC + a good web frontend for history/search isn't enough using either Mattermost (https://about.mattermost.com/) or Rocket Chat (https://rocket.chat/) has been very successful.

Just my 2c and I'll be happy to be a part of the community no matter where it ends up.
