Thank you @Xintong Song <tonysong...@gmail.com> for sharing the experience of the Flink China community.
I'm become convinced we should give Slack a try, both for discussions among the core developers, and as a place where the community can reach out for help. I am in favor of using the ASF slack, as we will need a paid instance for this to go well, and joining it is easy enough (took me about 2 minutes). Thanks, Robert, for suggesting we go down this route.
