Slack

We use Slack for team communication. This describes how we use our various channels.

#datagov-alerts

Critical alerts are posted here. These alerts require immediate attention in order to prevent downtime.

#datagov-ckan-multi (archived)

Discussion for the CKAN multi-tenant project.

#datagov-comms (?)

Channel for social media notifications and outreach.

#datagov-devsecops

Our team channel. Nearly all discussion takes place here.

#datagov-notifications

This is used for non-urgent notifications that require triage or action. We add RSS feeds for (some) dependencies so that when an update is available, we can make sure our apps and platform pick up the update.

#datagov-pmo

Gov-only channel for the Program Management Office. Sensitive topics like contracts are discussed here.
