Our "official" channels for Clojure discussion are the clojure, clojurescript, and clojure-dev mailing lists. We moderate and maintain these lists. The Clojure/core team has no involvement with the creation or management of the Clojurians Slack channel. The community does not need our blessing to set up a discussion forum - we're happy to have more places for Clojure folks to talk about Clojure. I'd rather have the community decide what they want to do - we (the core team) are not looking to add additional moderation/admin duties beyond what we currently do. Perhaps the new group that was established under the Software Freedom Conservancy could be of assistance in choosing and managing a preferred forum. I personally monitor (to varying degrees): the mailing lists, Slack, #clojure on irc, clojure subreddit, and Twitter and try to answer questions in those locations based on my available time to do so.
