After much discussion and testing we are hoping to move state-wide communications to Slack and away from Hangouts. A single Slack Team will allow us to have channels for each area, a general channel, private group chats, and individual chats (direct messages). Owners and Admins do not have access to group chats unless invited, nor to direct messages between individuals. Slack also allows the team to be moderated and it does not have a limit of 100 people. The goal is to bring Montana together as a team for communication. It will not replace our communities but it will allow Montana to communicate more effectively as a team for local, State-wide, and National operations. Slack has proven very effective in Idaho and other areas. Please either post your email so we can add you or contact Robert Lafley, Jackson Cyr, Devon W, John Ewan, Frank Dougher, Jeremy Neff, or myself with your email address so we can add you.
I assume Jackson = Wagga? I'm gnibbler and I do check the bozeman community occasionally just to see what's going on. I used to live in bozeman, and I still work for oracle, so I will be through occasionally on business. I live in Chicago now though, so it's a bit far to drop a resonator on the airport. Next time I head out there I'll be sure to let you guys know and I'll bring lots of L8 gear for you too.
