What is a Slackathon? A simple way to build slack interations inside the group in a specific time.

Team roles (I know that I saw this information previously, but I am not really sure where)

How we use slack? Slack’s configuration could be separate into Channels and Direct Messages. Channels organize communication facilitating conversations around a specific team, project or topic. Direct Messages are a private chat between two (or more) participants.

Thanks for contributing to give your view as a new member!. Currently, team roles are part of this repo, here: https://github.com/forwards/tasks/blob/master/taskforce_roles.md.

Etherpad links are shared in the email invitation and on slack just before the slackathon - we currently use a different link each time, though I guess we could reuse the same one as the minutes are then tidied up by @emdodwell and put on GitHub. The etherpad would not be so private then, but as long as people know this we can use Slack for anything that should be kept private.
