[OSGeo Africa] Slack Channel

[Jeffrey Johnson]

+1 from a different jeff on using Gitter for public/open projects. Im super
happy with slack for projects where someone is paying the bill and/or we
dont care about history, but besides the pricing, its impossible to make
rooms public even for view only.
