Community Announcements are also made on Discord...

[Jan de Muijnck-Hughes]

Dear all;

For those not aware Discord is 'a' forum used by others of the Idris
Community to discuss all things related to Idris.

For those not aware, I would like to point out that it appears to be
the case that Discord does not send out-of-band (email) notifications
unless one is logged in and inactive. This has the side-effect that
any announcements there are missed until one is logged in.

As someone who rarely logs into Discord I have personally missed any
and all notifications/pings/pokes/whatever since the beginning of
December---the last time I logged in.

There appears to have been major changes to how Idris2 operates wrt to
packages since then that I would have liked to contribute to but alas
did not. I fear it is too late now, and that with how 'community'
comms are going I will always miss them as I am not a frequent Discord
user.

I have asked the admins for this Discord community to ensure that all
'Community Announcements' are duplicated here for those of us who are
not into Discord.

Thanks

Jan

Thanks, I would also appreciate this. I don't like Discord.
