I previously floated with a couple of PMC members the idea of posting new Stack Overflow/Stack Exchange questions to the #cassandra Slack channel. The motivation for doing so include:
- Promote/advertise the questions (AND answers) on Stack Overflow + Stack Exchange. - Answers on the Stack network are SEO-friendly unlike Slack conversations. - Asking on the Stack network reduces duplication for already-answered questions. It was suggested that I do some research on whether other Apache projects are already using the Slack integration but I haven't been successful in finding any previous Jira tickets or info on ASF wikis so I logged a ticket with the ASF Infrastructure team to ask (a) if it's been requested before, and/or (b) if it's allowed (INFRA-24004 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-24004>). The Slack-Stack integration hasn't been requested before but Infra thought it was a good idea and implemented it before I've had the chance to circle back to the PMC for next steps. In any case, does anyone have concerns about the notifications in Slack? Do you foresee any issues with it? Cheers!
