Mattermost

The Open Terms Archive community gathers in a Mattermost space. This space provides both community and official support, and centralises all instances’ contributors. You can ask to join it by sending an email to contact AT opentermsarchive.org.

Channels and naming conventions

In order to increase discoverability of channels and ease navigation, the following prefixes are used:

• Modules: channels are about quick discussions and requests for help on a technical module. To make decisions on changes to apply to these modules, we use GitHub issues and Pull Requests on dedicated repositories.
• Instance: channels centralise discussions between contributors of specific instances. They are given the name of the instance, with dashes replaced by underscores. If that full name is too long for the channel character limit, then a shortened version of the name is used.
