Using external groups for discussing Sakai related things

Hi all,

Recently a number of groups have been appearing outside of the  
traditional Sakai Collab/Confluence/Jira infrastructure, for  
discussing Sakai related developments. I feel that this is dangerous  
and has the potential to fragment the community. Discussions and  
decisions appear to be being made 'behind closed doors'.

Whilst I realise those groups are open for anyone to join, many look  
only towards Collab and Confluence for a central point of discussion  
and information so may not be aware of many important discussions  
being made in these other groups, nor have the chance to have their  
input heard.

Sakai is a vibrant open community and we should keep these discussions  
centralised and open for all, especially with the changes coming in  
the near future. Do people agree?



regards,
Steve
