-[[https://vanhack.slack.com/|Slack]] - Slack is somewhat similar to IRC, and has replaced our IRC channel as our official member-chat medium. Unfortunately you need to be invited by one of the current admins to get access to it - that's slack.com's requirement, not ours. Information on how to do that can be found on [[https://talk.hackspace.ca/t/vhs-irc-and-slack/1318|the VHS Talk forum]].
