It would likely be good to have a couple of different platforms.=20

I like Discord and Telegram for community chat and general sharing of inform=
ation. But both are limited in how you can breakdown information into catego=
ries and maintain a logical history.=20

I like Slack and Trello for grouping chunks of data within a team attempting=
 productivity.=20

I like the idea of categorizing the options into synchronous and asynchronous communication methods, as proposed in that Rust thread.

Sync
Current: Gitter

Use case: support and, to a lesser extent, design discussion

Main problems: low response rate because a) there aren't enough contributors who are dedicating time to field issues (myself included) and b) few people have Gitter open all the time so checking for new messages is an extra step

My take: Slack isn't great for open source projects but it is the one that most Interledger contributors have sitting open while they're working, so if we're optimizing for making sure people get help that might be the best one

Async
Current: Github Issues, Mailing List

Use case: design discussion, brainstorming

Main problems: Github issue threads get very long and unwieldy, sending emails to the mailing list seems too weighty because it spams everyone's inbox

My take: Discourse might be worth trying out, based on the experience of the Rust and Ethereum Research communities, but I'm not sure how different the participation would be on that type of forum versus on Github issues and PRs.

PS Thanks Akash for taking the initiative to kick off this discussion!

The main reason I bring this up is because Gitter could be out of the way for a lot of us and the application doesn't encourage dedicated usage. Email lists are a bit old school and signing up for the Interledger one is out of the way. I think the reason for such a cryptic interface for the w3c style/linux foundation emails list is sybil resistance and anti-spam since there are liberal write permissions to the lists. I think scaling the community requires something better than email and Gitter. Would be great to hear thoughts on this.

Based on the comments received and talking to people offline I think what's=
 best going forward is to create a self-hosted Discourse as an asynchronous=
 forum to replace email , and have the synchronous chat that replaces Gitte=
r be Discord/Slack. No rocket.chat or niche platforms to avoid developer ov=
erhead.

The only questions are now:
-What subdomain should the Discourse be at?=C2=A0forum.interledger.org? or=
=C2=A0disc.interledger.org or research.interledger.org?=C2=A0
-Does it make sense for Discourse to have very clearly defined rules for di=
scussions for enforcing high signal to noise ratio (like on=C2=A0https://et=
hresear.ch/ )? I'm leaning more towards this, and I think that's the most e=
ffective way to use the platform while ensuring the Interledger community s=
teers toward productive discussions. Early on, we can be lenient about this=
 and enforce as needed.=C2=A0
-Should we use bridging software?=C2=A0=C2=A0( https://github.com/42wim/mat=
terbridge ) Note that this is not ideal, because moderation is fragmented, =
and the interoperability aspect basically relies on a bot receiving message=
s from another client and pushing it to a chat log. You can see the demos o=
n matterbridge to see what I mean.=C2=A0
-Assuming money not an issue, it looks like Slack is the preferred way to d=
o things vs. Discord. Only downside is that Slack's interface for joining c=
hats is not great (requires an auto-invite tool to be hosted), but I think =
that's ok, I've generally had better community experiences through Slack de=
spite that.

As long as we have a Discourse that stays with us forever with most of the =
valuable information, we can always move our synchronous chat if it ever be=
comes a problem.

<div>I was wondering if there would be any interest in moving from Gitter t=
o another platform. The main reason I bring this up is because Gitter could=
 be out of the way for a lot of us and the application doesn't encourage de=
dicated usage. Email lists are a bit old school and signing up for the Inte=
rledger one is out of the way. I think the reason for such a cryptic interf=
ace for the w3c style/linux foundation emails list is sybil resistance and =
anti-spam since there are liberal write permissions to the lists. I think s=
caling the community requires something better than email and Gitter. Would=
 be great to hear thoughts on this.</div></div><div><br></div><div>Couple p=

Based on the comments received and talking to people offline I think what's=
 best going forward is to create a self-hosted Discourse as an asynchronous=
 forum to replace email , and have the synchronous chat that replaces Gitte=
r be Discord/Slack. No rocket.chat or niche platforms to avoid developer ov=
erhead.

The only questions are now:
-What subdomain should the Discourse be at?=C2=A0forum.interledger.org? or=
=C2=A0disc.interledger.org or research.interledger.org?=C2=A0
-Does it make sense for Discourse to have very clearly defined rules for di=
scussions for enforcing high signal to noise ratio (like on=C2=A0https://et=
hresear.ch/ )? I'm leaning more towards this, and I think that's the most e=
ffective way to use the platform while ensuring the Interledger community s=
teers toward productive discussions. Early on, we can be lenient about this=
 and enforce as needed.=C2=A0
-Should we use bridging software?=C2=A0=C2=A0( https://github.com/42wim/mat=
terbridge ) Note that this is not ideal, because moderation is fragmented, =
and the interoperability aspect basically relies on a bot receiving message=
s from another client and pushing it to a chat log. You can see the demos o=
n matterbridge to see what I mean.=C2=A0
-Assuming money not an issue, it looks like Slack is the preferred way to d=
o things vs. Discord. Only downside is that Slack's interface for joining c=
hats is not great (requires an auto-invite tool to be hosted), but I think =
that's ok, I've generally had better community experiences through Slack de=
spite that.

As long as we have a Discourse that stays with us forever with most of the =
valuable information, we can always move our synchronous chat if it ever be=
comes a problem.

e:</div></div><blockquote><div></div><div>Hi all,</div><div><br></div><div>=
<div>I was wondering if there would be any interest in moving from Gitter t=
o another platform. The main reason I bring this up is because Gitter could=
 be out of the way for a lot of us and the application doesn't encourage de=
dicated usage. Email lists are a bit old school and signing up for the Inte=
rledger one is out of the way. I think the reason for such a cryptic interf=
ace for the w3c style/linux foundation emails list is sybil resistance and =
anti-spam since there are liberal write permissions to the lists. I think s=
caling the community requires something better than email and Gitter. Would=
 be great to hear thoughts on this.</div></div><div><br></div><div>Couple p=
roblems with Gitter:</div><div><ol><li><div>Clunky interface</div></li><li>=
<div>Poor separation of conversations/rooms</div></li><li><div>Bad search f=

One quote I like from The Design Philosophy of the DARPA Internet Protocols=
: "The goal of permitting distributed management of the Internet has certai=
nly been met in certain aspects." certainly. "For example, not all of the g=
ateways in the Internet are implemented and managed by the same agency."

In today's world, we see a push for decentralization happening with all the=
se new crypto protocols pushing for sound, open money standards. But what d=
egree of distribution makes for a good monetary datagram protocol? And what=
 does distribution mean in the case of Interledger and payment channel netw=
orks in general? Should we shy away from these internet designs for money b=
ecause they aren't decentralized enough?=C2=A0

>From what I gather after these reading papers and others (will post another=
 email this week with more readings) hub and spoke is the best way to speed=
 up adoption/deployment and I think makes the best balance between performa=
nt networks and end-to-end arguments. Escaping this convergence requires a =
devolution of the monetary system because network-flow market-share needs t=
o be measured by resources for security purposes, and only way to not have =
that is to be communist, essentially.

after these reading papers and others (will post another email this week wi=

I signed up for a trial Discourse account and submitted the request to have them host it for free because it's for an open source project. I'm waiting to hear back on that and working on getting the DNS set up to point forum.interledger.org to it (let me know if anyone feels strongly that the domain should be something else). If they don't approve the free hosting request, we can switch it over to a self-hosted version (and migrate the data).

Possibly; what kind of rules would you envision? (Right now, though, I'm not too worried about having too much discussion. If that becomes a problem, I think we can cross that bridge when we get there)

I'm leaning more towards this, and I think that's the most effective way to use the platform while ensuring the Interledger community steers toward productive discussions. Early on, we can be lenient about this and enforce as needed.
> -Should we use bridging software? (https://github.com/42wim/matterbridge) Note that this is not ideal, because moderation is fragmented, and the interoperability aspect basically relies on a bot receiving messages from another client and pushing it to a chat log. You can see the demos on matterbridge to see what I mean.

Only downside is that Slack's interface for joining chats is not great (requires an auto-invite tool to be hosted), but I think that's ok, I've generally had better community experiences through Slack despite that.

The main reason I bring this up is because Gitter could be out of the way for a lot of us and the application doesn't encourage dedicated usage. Email lists are a bit old school and signing up for the Interledger one is out of the way. I think the reason for such a cryptic interface for the w3c style/linux foundation emails list is sybil resistance and anti-spam since there are liberal write permissions to the lists. I think scaling the community requires something better than email and Gitter. Would be great to hear thoughts on this.

A huge advantage to federated topologies or hub and spoke is that by having
pools of capital you can more effectively net flows against one another.

If the topology is truly decentralised this is very inefficient. The result
is that the network locks up more capital.

This a public forum for participating in Interledger's research efforts, in=
cluding but not limited to:
* Scaling
* Load balancing
* Connector topology
* Routing
* Decentralized Exchange
* Market Making
* Fee Markets
* Economics
* Privacy techniques
* Custody
* ILP improvements (pre-RFC)

This is=C2=A0*not*=C2=A0the place for:

* Generic crypto and Interledger discussion (use Slack)
* Discussing specific PRs and in progress RFCs (use GitHub)

Technical questions are ok as long as they are relevant and are non-repeats=
.

Just don't want to have randos asking about when the next ILP plug-in is go=
ing to be released on here or "when wallet".

wondering if there would be any interest in moving from Gitter to another p=

the way for a lot of us and the application doesn't encourage dedicated usa=

 is out of the way. I think the reason for such a cryptic interface for the=
 w3c style/linux foundation emails list is sybil resistance and anti-spam s=
ince there are liberal write permissions to the lists. I think scaling the =
community requires something better than email and Gitter. Would be great t=

You can sign up for the Interledger forum at: forum.interledger.org. (https://forum.interledger.org)

As discussed on this thread, (https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-interledger/2019Feb/0001.html) we are trying out Discourse as an alternative to the the mailing list and Github issues on the RFCs repo for discussions about protocol designs and improvements, implementations, and applications. There's also a category for beginner questions so we can build up a knowledge base as questions are asked and answered (hopefully more promptly than on Gitter!).
See you on the forum!
Evan

Hi all,

This week Kava will talk us through their beta API for cross-chain trading
that aims to maker it simpler to build apps and wallets on top of
Interledger

We'll also review the latest hot topics on the forums and hear about some
of the new connector design work being done:
https://forum.interledger.org/t/plugin-architecture-and-ledger-integrations=
/42

We'd like to use the forum to propose topics for future calls. Bring your
thoughts on how this could work to the call.

Note that all the recent calls are available to listen to from the website:
https://interledger.org/calls.html
