I hate slack but we could use a channel like that, I worry about any form of
divergence because we’re already few and far between
I have had great luck with Docker and WO and have a few modern frameworks that
help keep our apps nicely modern and I’m actually really happy with the results
so I still love WO and haven’t found anything I could wield that kind of power.
I should put the Docker stuff into a WIKI page, but I’m also wondering about
the ‘old’ wiki and who’s maintaining any of that or if we should largely start
again or something.
Ideas?
