Last week the board decided to try a three month experiment with some new
technologies (that members have used on other projects).

- To replace email voting --> Loomio (Anita has already set up
https://www.loomio.org/g/kdSmIwxu/osgeo-board )
- To replace IRC ---> gitter (like slack but more integrated with github)

From email discussion on SAC:

* OSGeo does have a git repo here (https://github.com/osgeo)
* OSGeo already has some rooms here: https://gitter.im/orgs/OSGeo/rooms
* The discussion got into free vs open tools ...

Comment (by strk):

I don't see how SAC needs to be involved with this, what is this ticket
asking for, exactly ?
