I’ve found that I really like its stateful behavior — with IRC I miss messages all the time — because I don’t run an IRC client 24x7. But with Gitter, no messages lost — its always in my history. Gitter also has better support for multimedia, so uploading pictures, graphs, even audio, is much easier. Gitter is the “open-source git” equivalent to “slack”. Now that said, I definitely think splitting the community between IRC and Gitter is foolish. I’ve not been paying close attention to IRC lately, but it seems like there isn’t a lot of activity there (on the nanomsg channel I mean). Am I mistaken? I’m happy to basically follow the wishes of the community here — but my personal vote all other things being equal is for gitter. Folks will find it much more likely that I’ll *eventually* respond to IM’s on gitter than on IRC, because I go for long stretches at a time without logging into IRC. > >> • travis integration tests automated for all inbound PR activity with the >> following operating system coverage: >> - osx >> - linux > > Yeah, Travis is definitely something we should get going.

We should probably converge out-of-band on understanding how that works, and what, if any, steps I should take to ensure it keeps working. - Garrett > > I'm not sure if access to that can be delegated to more people, or > what infra it's running on. > > Cheers, > > Dirkjan
