XSF Communications Team - 2019-09-18

hi all, if you allow me...

Slack has launched a campaign around their paying feature: the Shared Channels

https://slackhq.com/slack-shared-channels

I have posted this:

this is not a call for Likes

it is a call for content

please post (or not) from your social media accounts:LinkedIn, Twitter, Mastodon, Instagram, whatever

mention XMPP or Jabber or not

talk about shared groupchats or channels

rather not mention Slack, but hey do what you want

you can also talk abuot MUC features

Slack attempting federation-ish? I think Mattermost had a similar feature

you can also talk about benefits, outcome, how MUCs can change users life

yeah, RocketChat as well, and Discord... and maybe MS Teams, I don't know...

in any case, it is only pairing of a single channel

pairing between two organisations, not three or more

so very limited

on Slack, only admins can do this

so I would avoid the term "federation", even with the "ish" suffix :)

so who wants to join the POSS, Paris Open Source Summit?

I don't have anything planned yet. No idea where I'll be around this date. I guess I can join and help.
