TSC Votes on Chat Choice

[Nikolai Kondrashov]

Hi everyone,

We've had a back-and-forth over the choice of a chat system for KernelCI for a
while now, and it's time to move on.

Right now we use free-tier Slack for most internal communication, and IRC for
engaging with the kernel development community. We don't have a bridge between
them.

It seems that the majority would prefer moving to Discord, and have a bridge
with IRC. Although there are "Matrix and IRC bridge" advocates too.

I'll start the vote on the technical steering committee shortly, but I wanted
to give a shout to the general community for the last chance to sway our choice.

Please respond if you have a particular preference and practical reasons
behind it.

Thank you!
Nick

I would prefer to use the Discord. Best part here is that I can install it on 
my mobile but can't install in my work computer due to restrictions. 

I like discord because it keeps me near to the technologies used
by my teenage son :).
