Ok, the above was a bit too compromised. The official communication |
19 |
channels within the project of course also includes the ways the |
20 |
developers are expected to work together; i.e also bugzilla and the |
21 |
various required mailing lists. |
22 |
|
23 |
Whether IRC is official communication channel is more of an interesting |
24 |
discussion; as it is not a required medium for developers, but it is |
25 |
definitely close due to the amount of work that is being done over it. |
26 |
|
27 |
but from a PR perspective the official communication channels are the |
28 |
website and mailing list announcements (that for us acts as press releases) |
