All,

PDAL had a gittr org, but their ToS and feature mix is maybe not so good these days. I have started up a PDAL Zulip at https://pdal.zulipchat.com if you want to asynchronously chat about PDAL topics.

Goodie - yet another chat application with impossibly complicated access
rituals! Life was getting a bit boring anyway :)

Apparently, one needs an invite to access that "Zulip". Is that what you
intended? Can I get one?

It should be as simple as joining with your GitHub credential, no?

I intended that anyone can join with their GitHub account.

What?s wrong with just having discussions on this mailing list? It?s not

Nothing and the mailing list is the primary communication medium, but I know that not everyone is comfortable posting on mailing lists, and I was looking to provide an alternative venue for asynchronous chat.

It seems that PDAL has to apply for a sponsorship to allow anonymous anyone to join the instance. I have done so and will report back if it is approved. This is why people are not able to get into it.

By way of introduction, I'm not really using pdal yet (I hope to deal
with USGS LIDAR data for micromapping), but hope to in the future.  I
maintain the gdal, proj, geos, postgis, qgis and a few others in pkgsrc.

My $0.02 from being on many Free Software projects:

  I get it why some people like chat, but the discipline of actually
  composing mail tends to keep the S/N ratio higher.  I find that I
  cannot stand to follow most chats.

  I think Free Software projects should only use Free tools, and not
  expect people to enter into agreements with non-charitable third
  parties to participate.  (I know this argues against github.)  These
  days, that tends to lead to matrix.   (Because IRC seems too hard for
  the people that don't like mailinglists.)

osgeo already has a matrix homeserver, and it seems that one could have
#pdal:osgeo.org and avoid the entire third party system.  Yes, people
need a matrix account on some system, but not any particular system, and
they can self-host if they want.

Done. Let's do OSGeo's Matrix instead of Zulip. I didn't have strong opinions either way. The reason I put forward Zulip was due to Conda Forge's policy [1] on it. OSGeo's Matrix can work just fine for us going forward. Thanks to Sandro and Regina for the support to get the connections between IRC, Slack, and Matrix going as well.

The community page https://pdal.io/en/stable/community.html has been updated accordingly.
