Could we bridge so we each have this channel for sharing on our own home-turf? Then ppl don't need to be as committed as you two to say "hi" :)

@phiven @stationaery feel really in agreement with your comments in thread. alas, sorry, i apologize for being dense, but i'm still uncertaain on how you two feel about bridging slacks for this channel and one in twc slack. as i understand that, the goal would be to create an overlap in which g0v and twc people can most easily occupy. (ie. the IRC effect of "every interaction is /join away" rather than "register and /join")

would y'all feel that aligned and supportive of what you're aspiring for in being here? 🙂

Maybe when there is any indication of a need for that, it’d be worth doing. But right now I believe we’re seeing a need is for people in this channel to have more conversations about what we’re experiencing and why we think that happens and generally just being in this space.. and maybe we can add more bridges or whatever after activity demands it

patcon 2018-12-10 13:45:22

Ok, with the qualification below: as you wish :)

With genuine respect, I should admit the "wait for need" positioning of bridging does feel akin to saying of civic hackathons "they'll come when there's a need", which feels slightly off if the philosphy of the format is connection -- more about emergence, than reaction.

But that's a very personalised read through my own ways of moving :)

I was saying I can make the bridge connection for free at near-zero time cost to anyone on your end (just regular slack account requested like any new slack member), but it sounds like you're requesting that I don't. (i.e. more than "i don't personally think we need", but rather as a thoughtful yet firm block on my taking action.) Pls correct me if I'm misinterpreting :heart:
