Other than Benson, I have received no sign of any interest from gfortran developers to adopt a teaming/collaboration platform.  I am a bit disappointed. Maybe my intent was misunderstood.  I am not suggesting replacing the email approval process but there are many other features of these platforms, in particular, communication efficiency that would be very helpful.
There is a discourse site https://fortran-lang.discourse.group that caters to Fortran in general.


I know many software developers who use these tools regularly. Honestly I do not know why gcc.gnu.org does not adopt one of these as a whole. Perhaps it is simply resistance to change.

Maybe it is helpful to bridge Mattermost and IRC? Interoperability is good and minimizes the cost of having multiple clients running. The chat applications are great for enabling focus, for example adding git commit notifications in a separate channel.

https://quassel-irc.org seems like it may also be helpful.

I will keep the Mattermost workspace.  If anyone want to join send me your email and I will send you an invite.

Well, as always, best regards,

Jerry

3. Mattermost looks pretty good and was easy to set up.  The free

This server application runs well. The desktop application is a little resource heavy, however there is also a Qt based desktop application:

It is possible to bridge Mattermost and IRC:
