Sounds good. I am looking at the list of developers and see Laurent and 
Nicholas in there.

As KDE has adopted Matrix as its main IM service, I suspect that that (and IRC 
and Telegram for historic reasons) is what most people are going to be using, 
as opposed to Rocket.chat.

I am also conducting a poll to see who uses Rocket.chat and figure out who we 
can ask, but, so far, my suspicions are being confirmed. I may have to cast a 
wider net, see who we can dig up to help.

Hello Ann, pleased to meet you.

Yes, I think that starting out with a blog post may be the best way to go. If 
we find that research  leads to bigger things, we can take it from there

Maybe we should look into other KDE projects that support other IM services 
too, like NeoChat or Tok, see if we can dig out a KDAB connection there, and 
get a bit more meat for the topic.

Note that at this moment in time I do not know if there is a connection.

Thanks Frances.

Talk soon!
