(Thread) In the olden days, a FOSS (Free/Open Source Software) project typically had:

- A source code repository
- A web page with the documentation, FAQ and links to downloads
- At least one mailing list called announce, typically also one for users and one for contributors, all with public archives
- (maybe) An IRC channel to chat with other users and maybe also the developers

Maybe it’s time to try that simple approach again? Everything open, everything accessible? 1/7

@jwildeboer When I got more involved with the Kubernetes community, it was also my first encounter with Slack, and having the main communication channel of an open source project be proprietary always rubbed me the wrong way.
