That's a good point, and I'm definitely excited for Slack to get threaded messaging. And of course, what works well for one group might not for another.

I just really like that (when we're done with the rollout) all of my FRC-related communications will be in one place instead of being split between 3 email accounts, facebook pages, facebook messenger, a website that doesn't sync with any of those, a messy whiteboard in a corner of the shop, a list scratched into a tabletop, a bulletin board on the side of the microwave, and a notebook under the pizza oven.
