What is the difference of this repo between questions in slack?

The second point for communication can mislead people.

The intention was to post foundation related governance questions here and find solutions in public. Things like "should we switch to using only GitHub discussions and remove the Slack group" (no intention to do that now, but that would be one of the issues that in my opinion clearly belongs here.

However given the limited use this repo has seen, I believe it is time to archive it.

What do you think @InnerSourceCommons/members ?

[rrrutledge]

Sure. Let people discuss things in the members channel.

So, I see this seems to have become stale, but one point to be considered, discussions on GitHub are more transparent than Slack and also more traceable, as the non-paid version of Slack only allows us access to messages that are newer than 90 day, or something like that.
Even if we start paying for Slack, I would not rely on its messages for traceability, otherwise we will be locked into it.
Of course, we are also locked into GitHub, but it is free and I don't think that is likely to change.
Full disclosure, I work for SAP, Slack was bought by Salesforce, which is a competitor.
