+1 - I'd love for us to switch to Matrix.

Any other Ubuntu related discussions should happen on #ubuntu-devel or elsewhere. > One argument I've heard to maintain a split is that privileged teams can > sift through other conversations to find privileged team requests more > easily. But Matrix has threads, so this together with keyword highlights > should suffice, shouldn't it? It does but that's not enough. I expect few people to actively monitor what's happening with their Release and AA hats on and if there's heavy traffic, that becomes hard. I can go on and on but TL;DR is - please have them separate; use #ubuntu-release to reach out to Release and AA teams and for the two teams to coordinate and collaborate around the milestones. - u -- ubuntu-devel mailing list ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel
