We will not be moving our real-time communication mechanism to Slack, or 
any other proprietary chat platform. See my other e-mail for a bit more 
of an explanation as to why, or, if you've got 20 minutes, please read 
this article:

I use slack daily for communications with work colleagues, and don't 
hate it, though I wish their stand-alone clients didn't use a shitload 
of RAM (they're Electron-based browser apps)
