Please reply with which chat applications you are willing to use. We have some real issues with the Matrix-to-IRC bridge and we know we want off-line messages, not just visiting a website for the logs (though having web searchable logs still would be ideal).
Ultimately, I will get bridges working, at least to irc.beagleboard.org, but, in the meantime, let’s get a functional chat solution.
I need to hear from all the mentors. Ideally, it would be good to hear from most of the potential students as well.
Chat programs you want to use
- Slack
- Matrix
- IRC/irccloud
- Discord
- Zulip
- Mattermost
- Rocket.chat
It seems Discord is most popular, but only @Stephen_Arnold and @Vedant_Paranjape have replied as mentors.
Can I hear from @HY0 @Michael_Welling @Pratim_Ugale @Iain_Hunter @lorforlinux and @giuliomoro ?
@cwicks , are Abhishek Kumar, Robert Matzke, Arthur Sonzogni and Andrew Henderson registered on the new forum?!?
I’d also like to hear from @RobertCNelson @DrewFustini @yoder and @kgiori as keeping them informed and engaged is a lot of value to the program.
Regards,
Jason
voted, thanks for the heads up!
Voted, I am okay with any one of these.
I have been using discord for my community efforts with pretty decent success.
I know some of the old timers won’t like it but it works well.
Slack works for me as well. Just don’t invent a new chat platform, I am starting to losing track of all of the different ones I have joined.

OK, BeagleBoard.org - gsocchat now points to a Slack invite. After that, join “#gsoc”.
