[Sugar-devel] Proposal to move communication to other platform

[Chihurumnaya Ibiam]

Hi Prashant,

1. We have a gitter chat room <https://gitter.im/Sugar-Labs/community>
which you can use, James is quite active there so he'll see your messages
if you sent any.
2. IRC can be used on android devices and they're various clients, I use
androirc
<https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.androirc&hl=en_US> you
can check it out.

We prefer communication be done on the mailing list for transparency as a
lot of people are subscribed to it and not everyone is on other platforms.
