Hello Jean-Louis,

As we want to bring some more action in the community and some collaboration, we would like to setup some new place to communicate for oVirt. The current IRC channel is quite dead, and I think IRC is not what we want to use anymore.

It's good that you're bringing up this topic.

Therefor the idea was to setup a Matrix Server/Channels or a Mattermost instance. I think both have their advantages and disadvantages, but might be nice to hear some feedback from the community.

What would you prefer as a place to communicate with each other?
- Matrix channel on matrix.org
- Matrix server with multiple channels
- Mattermost instance

We use Mattermost internally ourselves and it is a great communication tool. However, the ability to make voice calls in group rooms was removed in the last community version. Therefore, the question would be to what extent one can rely on the current range of functions in the future. I would also be fine with Matrix, because the barrier to participation is just as low here as with Mattermost and both can be self-hosted.

I myself would probably use Mattermost/Matrix to ask or answer questions (during the day) that might need to be asked or answered a little more promptly than on the mailing list.

What support does RedHat provide for infrastructure? Does it still exist? If you need hosting support, we'd be happy to help.

Kind Regards

Jan
