To set the cat among the pigeons a bit, it'd sure be interesting to consider setting up one of the F/OSS Slack-alikes for Fedora use...of course, there's a question of at what point we have too many tools.

I'd be very much in favor of something which lowers the barrier to participation here. IRC isn't hard once you're used to it, but NickServ, ChanServ, Zodbot, etc., add a layer of confusion and complication. It's not just newbies and non-geeks that we're shutting out. Only a small percentage of tech people - sysadmins, developers, etc. - have a working familiarity with IRC.

It'd be especially nice to have something which could integrate with FAS and with the Fedora Hubs.
