Iโ€™ve spoken to Ryan and the understanding is that anyone in the community
would have access upon request. Assuming theyโ€™re only getting read roles to
public repos like these apps request for anyways.

Tools like Orbit have a free open source tier that can be used but it is
limited to 3-5 users. We are paying for Common Room in Tabular and
Confluent/Kafka and Imply/Druid have this integration set up as well.

Iโ€™d be happy to discuss getting one of these set up for PMC usage but I
would mostly be using the one in Tabular. So the PMC one would be a shared
way to manage a view off the community for PMC work vs DevRel work.

Does that make sense?
