Hi Jim, Have not found Slack very useful for this. Find some level of mailbox notifications are useful, though discussion can occur on another platform. Benson On 2/14/22 5:59 PM, Jim Dinan wrote:

Hi Benson,

These are all good suggestions. My concern is that this is a relatively small group, and dividing our attention across several different platforms could be counterproductive. Presently we have email, slack, github, and regular meetings. If we can get the engagement that we're looking for without adding another platform, I think I would prefer to try that first, even if it's not perfect. This was the rationale for enabling GitHub discussions, but we don't seem to be using them yet. Would be interested to hear from you and others if you feel that we're missing something that could significantly boost productivity or engagement.

Cheers,  ~Jim.

Hi Jim,

Thanks for setting this up and reposting slides, this enables efficient tracking of discussions without needing to watch many long recordings to find the relevant snippet of information from a working group session. Would you consider trying out software such as: Discourse - https://www.discourse.org/ <https://www.discourse.org/> Loomio - https://www.loomio.com/ <https://www.loomio.com/> Decidim - https://decidim.org <https://decidim.org> Discussions really ties in to just one platform and may not be helpful for straw polls.  If so, would be happy to run one of these on a cloud provider. These also have filtered mailing list modes, and allow grouping of discussions by topic. Other tools such as Redmine or Jira could also help structure technical discussions better and have good Git integration.

Regards, Benson

Hi All,

You might have received an announcement that I enabled discussions on GitHub. I'm hopeful that this will give us an online forum that works a little better for discussion than issues, which can become hard to follow when there is a lot of discussion. Please feel free to try it out: https://github.com/mpiwg-hybrid/hybrid-issues/discussions <https://github.com/mpiwg-hybrid/hybrid-issues/discussions>

 ~Jim.
