[iTowns-dev] Chat room

[Adrien Berthet]

Hello,

I'm for Gitter: it is a really simple client, not too much feature such 
as in Slack or Mattermost (the engine behind Framateam), and is simpler 
to join than the two others: only a Github account is necessary (or 
not), and no invitation is necessary to join a channel (if it is 
public). In Slack (free version)/Mattermost, new users needs to receive 
an invitation. If people outside of the current dev team wants to join, 
we need to have a simple process.

Also for those who worry, Gitter is now opensource 
(https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitter/).

Note: I have used Gitter for more than a year, Slack for more than three 
years, and Mattermost a little.

Adrien
