Indeed, congratulations and thank you for posting about it here too.
My apologies for this late reply getting lost between various cracks
in my inbox. :(

I completely +1 the idea of a #pureos-changes channel.

I use this pattern in many projects; having that "soft" visibility is
extremely helpful for all sorts of reasons (both technical and non-
technical) in terms of encouraging more of a team feel, avoiding any
feeling of being isolated from others. Indeed, I even wrote the
#debian-devel- changes bot back in 2008 for these very reasons and it
has been remarkably successful in these regards.

Can I thus resubmit my request for this to be re-prioritised? :)

Oh, one adjunct question; how can we contribute/learn more about this
codebase? Whilst justifiable for many reasons, as it is on Github it
definitely feels a little separate from the rest of the PureOS code.
Can we ameliorate this somehow? I don't have any concrete suggestions
at this time, alas.


Best wishes,
