hi everyone, we're talking of moving the Clojure Berlin mailing list to http://Clojureverse.org

plexus 2015-11-06T11:27:42.000010Z

right now there are two google groups, one unused and one barely used

plexus 2015-11-06T11:29:02.000013Z

the idea would be to close both of these and invite people to a new list on http://Clojureverse.org

pesterhazy 2015-11-06T11:29:15.000015Z

we also have this slack channel, and the meetup group messages

plexus 2015-11-06T11:30:14.000016Z

true, I think a mailing list is a good complement to a chat channel

plexus 2015-11-06T11:31:36.000017Z

I had forgotten about the meetup message board to be honest

plexus 2015-11-06T11:34:13.000018Z

although it doesn't seem like many people look at those

socksy 2015-11-06T11:41:14.000020Z

probably because everyone has forgotten all about it

plexus 2015-11-06T11:48:51.000021Z

seems there are some diverging opinions. Which is good :simple_smile: main proposed options so far, close everything except the meetup board, or close the meetup board as well and move to clojureverse

plexus 2015-11-06T11:49:30.000022Z

we'll talk about it with people on Wednesday so grab me or @pesterhazy or @martinklepsch at the meetup if you have feels about this

plexus 2015-11-06T11:52:55.000023Z

to be honest I'm not sure if there is still a role for a traditional mailing list in the age of slack. Personally I appreciate having a slower lower traffic medium that I can subscribe to. The question is if we can get a critical mass to make it a living thing, nobody likes abandoned boards

plexus 2015-11-06T11:53:06.000024Z

some of the things I imagine a mailing list to be good for

plexus 2015-11-06T11:53:13.000025Z

follow up on the meetups, posting slides and adding input on talks announcements of local events, e.g. clojurebridge call for participants/coaches people asking for feedback on projects that they prefer to do in a smaller local community first
