Hi
BangPypers doesn't have any online channel to discuss. Most of the Open
source/Free software projects use IRC as tool for instant communication.
Lately, lot of people have asked in meetup and at various places does one
exist one for BangPypers. Many organizations like Wordpress [1], gopher
[2
Slack is good, but I think we have to pay to keep chat history.

I have not used Slack, but here's an idea that I have. We could always
create a custom python module enabling us to have all the functionalities
mentioned by Krace. This will in itself become an Open Source contribution

framework
Slack is great, and the only limitation is archives are limited to last
10,000 messages which probably would not be an issue.

Slack is good no doubt. But I just don't believe its the right tool for a
community. Especially because, it wont be long before we hit the 1
message limit and the 5 free integrations limit.
Also, the fact that slack channels are unmoderated goes against its defence
for community driven initiat

Scrollback looks totally different concept, create rooms and create
discussions. It has IRC/Twitter bridge.
Not sure if it can match all features of slack.

Gitter.im is another good alternative. Is free for open repositories on GitHub
and has worked well for us. All you need is to create an organization on GitHub
and users would need a GitHub account.

AFAIK having apps in all platforms helps users to stick to the conversation
and get notification.
