Devil's advocate:

How good is #tails to follow our work compared to:

- #tails-summit to which friendly bystanders don't have access to?
Though I'm not sure what's done where these days.

- Our public monthly reports? It's not the same kind of information,
which is would be more useful to follow our work and for which public?

Devil's advocate:

Big tech and proprietary software companies have neither public
development channels nor suffer from the myth of being
pseudo-clandestine organizations.

Having a public XMPP room wouldn't add much if this was solved on our
website:

- #17700: Have an "About Us" section
- #17046: Have a "People" page
