Following this week's announcement about the end of Watson Workspace, the various members of the community asked for channels relating to IBM Collaboration Solutions / Collaborative Workflow Platforms technologies to be set up in OpenNTF Slack community. So following consultation we have channels for Connections on premises, Connections Cloud, Sametime, Domino admin, Domino dev and IBM Domino Mobile Apps. If you want to join, you can at https://slackin.openntf.org/ and then access the channels at https://openntf.slack.com.

For XPages there was already a separate community at https://xpages.slack.com/ and there are no plans to bring that thriving area into OpenNTF channels at this time. If you're working on XPages and are not yet in that chat, you can join by going to https://xpages-slack.herokuapp.com/.

If you're a new joiner and new to Slack, click on the word "Channels" and you get a list of channels you can choose from. Once you click on one, you're only browsing the content and will not yet get joined to it. To join the channel, click the link at the bottom of the chat. Clicking on the star under the bold channel name at the top of a chat adds it to your Starred channels. We would recommend everyone to click on their name, go to "Profile & Account" and set a display name. That ensures an understandable name appears when you ask questions.

It's great to see more IBM Champions already joining OpenNTF's slack and I'm sure this will help the breadth of conversation appearing in the general and random channels, as well as improving the excellent feedback members can get.
