Yes, it would be good to discuss here.

well during an unconf session in code for japan summit it was brought up that cfj slack has a “hello world” channel whose purpose is to connect with other communities. I think it would be great to hook up a bridge from it to our #hello-world

some code for america brigade also showed interests, so we might going to be connecting multiple chat rooms of the same purpose for many communities in the future

neat! a fresh start would be nice. wiring up #general channels doesn't feel like the best approach 🙂

so is #hello-world already bridged in the cfj slack? or is it for people visiting their slack to "drop in"? or is it a report-back place for cfj people who's visited other places?

it’s for ppl to drop in

ppl would discuss about how to connect communities in different countries in the channel in english, so bridging it to #hello-world would be like creating a chat room across slack domains

maybe we could treat this as a reason to upgrade matterbridge. (also, i'd be down to consider reverting the auto-translation for now, if it makes upgrades easier)

disabling it would be incentive for me to merge that changes upstream

I am okay about disabling it for the purpose of upgrade. which version are you using now?

@patcon any idea how we can move forward?
