[Talk-us] Slack: Do we need an Alternative (was Planning an import, in Price George...)

[Martijn van Exel]

Doug, 

I think we should / can rely on OSM US and community members who are on both Slack and email  to relay information to this list as well. I for one appreciate the fact that Slack and other social media are not for everyone. I will keep following the list as I have for years and post questions and announcements on here.

As a matter of fact I have something to say, I'll start another thread.
