👋 Hey <!channel>! We’ve just done some housekeeping in Slack to clean things up a bit and help focus channel topics. The big one is renaming this channel to #CFG3C3C66 and limiting who can post in it. This is a pattern many other slack groups have followed and I think it makes sense for the Meltano community as well. I also want to highlight a few changes to other channels here as well, but of course we have an issue you can peruse as well 😄 For Meltano related channels, we’ve gone with a no prefix strategy. This means channels like #CQUDGG7U2 #C01RHM084UD #C01E3MUUB3J #C017G5N36GH #C013Z450LCD #C01TCRBBJD7 #C01UTUSP34M etc will be mainly about those topics in the context of meltano. For the plugins and tools that Meltano integrates with, we’re using a prefix strategy. The big one, given our currently focus, is singer. Right now we have the following Singer-specific channels: • #C01UW1W4D5Y - A new channel for general discussion of Taps • #C01V8L0NZC1 - A new channel for general discussion of Targets • #C01RKUVUG4S - Renaming of a channel for SaaS API Singer Targets • #C01PKLU5D1R - Renaming of a channel for discussion of the SDK • #C01UGBSJNG5 - For discussion about the upcoming SingerHub • #C01E0PN6B7F - For discussion of a proposed BATCH message extension We’ll follow a similar pattern in the future as the product grows and expands. For now we have a catchall #C013EKWA2Q1 channel for discussion of all other plugins like Dagster, Great Expectations, etc. We have made #C01UW21TM98 though for specific discussion of dbt as a plugin. We can see how these plugin channels go and continue to iterate on the strategy here if the community feels strongly about something 🙂 Have any feedback on this? Any other ideas? Let us know in a thread 👇 or in this issue. Thanks everyone for being a part of this great community! meltano 🎉

@ben_marengo - Does #CMN8HELB0 fit for the best practice question you had in mind?
