[Gluster-devel] [Gluster-users] Freenode takeover and GlusterFS IRC channels

[Amar Tumballi]

We (at least many developers and some users) actively use Slack at
https://gluster.slack.com

While I agree that it's not a free/open alternative to IRC, it does get
many questions answered, and also gets communication happen related to the
project.

Regards,
Amar
