[swift-evolution] Official Swift Slack team?

[Adrian Zubarev]

It’s not that I want to move the evolution process into a real-time chat. I’d be totally fine if we’d get a corner on the Discourse forum to talk about anything somehow related to swift. I imagine Slack to be a corner where the community can talk about anything related to swift without the restriction the mailing list has or the forum might have. ;)

In my opinion, real-time chat does not have any advantages for swift-evolution discussions. I am a strong supporter of moving to Discourse, though.

To be fair, alongside JIRA, I think the official  Swift repository might want to use HipChat to extend and connect the two and developers inside and outside the company. Sure it is a cost, but I think it would make communication and progress happen much faster.

Hello World,

-1 on slack.

From experience, unless someone (apple) agrees to pay for it, slack will get pretty useless very quickly due to the 10,000 message limit.
Also, the invite only behavior of slack would put a rather annoying entry barrier.

If I were to suggest a technology to use for chat, I would suggest using Matrix (http://matrix.org), which could be easily bridged to an IRC channel (for the old bearded folks), is quite configurable and only limited by the server physical capacity.

Hello dear Swift community,

I’d like to pitch the idea of introducing an official Slack team?

Never heard of Slack before: https://slack.com 

I know we might have a forum in the future + we already have swift-users, but there are might be other talks you have on your mind around Swift. For example you could share some ideas, searching for help for your project, or just chat with your favorites language community.

That will keep the evolution process nice and clean. :)

What do you think?
