Hi all, I recently joined the QA group, and I wanted to put a feeler out for setting up a Fedora slack workspace.
There's currently a Slack group for the FEDORA repository management tool, more on that here, https://duraspace.org/fedora/ which I am also a member of, and almost every day they have quite a few people joining looking for help with *this* Fedora project by mistake. I think if we set up something for this project, it would both make things easier on that group and help those in need on Slack.
I've set up an initial workspace at fedoraprojectgroup.slack.com (fedora-project.slack.com was taken by the project mentioned above) and am happy to send out invites to anyone who emails me at
tsclayborne@fedoraproject.org
Looking forward to hearing everyone's thoughts on this

Slack is centralized, proprietary software. I don't know what the "FEDORA repository management tool" is, but it looks like a trademark issue waiting to happen.
I understand and share your concerns, however my goal in this is to reach and help those looking for it, regardless of my ideals about software.

If you're looking for support via a chat service, we're on Freenode in #fedora and #fedora- prefixed channels, such as #fedora-devel.
