Decide on public communication channels

[heiglandreas]

IMO we should have a public chat channel that we can use to communicate with one another as well as with users. What are preferred systems (apart from IRC which we might not get users to use)? Discord? Gitter? RocketChat? ...

I'd prefer to not have to install yet another chat client ;)

I currently have XMPP, Slack and Mattermost.

Slack sounds good to me :)
But do you really think this is necessary? I'm not sure we have that many "users" that we have to talk to ;)

[heiglandreas]

I'd see that more as the technical communication channel for us. If it's a Slack-Channel that would mean others would have to register which will reduce the number of people dropping by for sure and then we can skip it...

I'm fine with all of the named solutions ;)
