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

[Prashant Sengar]

Thanks a log for your response. I completely understand the transparency
maintained by sugar and value it. I did not know about the gitter chat room
as I didn't find it in the wiki. I will be happy to add it in the wiki if
it isn't really there and I did not make a mistake.


Thanks and regards,
Prashant Sengar
