Liftweb in Slack

[Henrik Härkönen]

Hey,

In the past I was a quite avid IRC user and these days, for me at least, the choice of chat tool is Slack. I have quite many teams, work team, friends team and even a team with my wife. :)

So, I though maybe it would be nice to try out if there would be a use case for Liftweb team as well. I didn't find any previous attempts to create such a channel for Lift, but
correct me if I'm wrong and there already is such tool in use. There's no sense of having duplicate tools in use for the same purpose.

The only bad thing about Slack in this context is that it's invitation based, so send me an email and I'll send you the invitation. If there's traction, we could use "slackin" tool for automating the invitation flow, but for now I can handle it. :)


Chat you later,
Henrik.

Let me know if it picks up traction :) There's a Lift IRC room (fairly dormant I believe) and a

gitter chat (also fairly dormant, but I actually keep an eye on the latter). I don't know that adding

yet another option will be valuable—both of the current chats are a bit sleepy, and I'm not

convinced by Slack as a tool in general (I do use it for a few auxiliary chats, but am the opposite

of a fan basically hehe).

That said, if people use Slack and that leads to some activity, I'll happily join. Please keep in

mind though that the only official support channel for Lift continues to be the mailing list—it's the

place monitored by the most people, and by the most committers :)

Thanks,

Antonio

Ah, ok, that gitter is something new to me. I might give it a try as well, but seems that my work's firewall
wont let me in for some reason. It's rather strict, I have to try at home.

IRC is nice, but it's so difficult to get history when absent, that it really isn't comfortable media these days when
I connect from so many different computers etc.

Yes I don't mean to steer any serious conversations away from this mailing list, sometimes it would just be nice
to have real time conversation with fellows. Even more informal perhaps in nature than mailing list. :)

Hi,

There's a gitter channel for lift. Right now, it could see some more activity. Currently, it's only Matt and Antonio doing all the talking :-)

Completely agree, btw! That's why we set up the gitter—it's tied to Github logins

which we thought was really handy in this case, since folks who work on the framework

generally have to have Github logins :)

Thanks,

Antonio

Ok now I got in, looks good, I'm happy with that, especially when there's already people joined in. :)
