The Library Simplified Slack channel is provided by Minitex


About Slack

Slack is a cloud-based set of proprietary team collaboration tools and services. The SimplyE project and Library Simplified community use slack to facilitate everyday communications in real time with eachother where ever they are.  There are web, desktop and mobile applications you can use.

The Library Simplified Community also provides a Slack team for day-to-day discussions, development and or Q&A as a convenience.  We recommend ONLY joining Slack if you wish to take part in these day-to-day discussions within our open source community. That said, all are welcome, whether you are a developer, repository manager, or systems administrator!  Participation is not guaranteed nor a right. 

Slack Participation Guidelines

By joining this channel and program you take individual responsibility and liability for your communications and conduct.  You agree to abide by our code of conduct and accept its terms and acknowledge violation of the code of conduct can remove your access from Slack. We discourage personal conversations on direct message channels and all development discussions are on open channels unless a Private Group channel is established for institutional participants.

The Slack Channel is provided by the generosity of Minitex.  Acces to this channel is granted by the administrator.  If you want access for your institution or developers or as an individual we ask that a partner library sponsor your request.  The inks below provide direction to the site as well as contact with the Slack Administrator (owner) for access requests.

Channels


Slack uses channels to help organize conversations by topic or audience.  The following can help you determine where to start.

  • #general - This channel is where we open discussions on topics or general questions posed to the community.  If you are not sure what channel your topic falls in, start here.
  • #development - This is where engineers talk to engineers.  This where developers can converse about development issues
  • #devops - This channel covers topics about building and deploying SipmlyE server software.
  • #random - We like to have fun too!  Post interesting topics not necessarily about SimplyE or Ebooks.  Keep it clean. Code of conduct still applies.
  • No labels
