Content Plan

This document provides details about the different channels that we have within the OpenWallet Foundation and what we expect each to be used for.

Channel	What	Roles
Discord	Real-Time Communication: Chat services facilitate real-time, synchronous communication among users. Messages are sent and received instantly, enabling quick exchanges and conversations. Interactive Collaboration: Chat services are well-suited for interactive collaboration, allowing users to engage in live discussions, share files, collaborate on documents, and even conduct video calls in some cases.	Staff: Administers, creates new channels, and moderates Community: Sends messages and monitors
Mailing Lists	Asynchronous Communication: Mailing lists are primarily used for asynchronous communication. Users send messages to a central email address, which are then distributed to all subscribers. Subscribers can read and respond to messages at their convenience. Broadcasting Information: Mailing lists are effective for broadcasting information to a group of subscribers. They are commonly used for announcements, discussions, and sharing updates within a community or organization. Archiving: Mailing lists typically archive messages, allowing subscribers to access past discussions and reference previous communications. This archival feature can be valuable for maintaining a record of conversations and facilitating knowledge sharing.

GitHub	Project-Based Source Code and User Documentation: Any source code for projects should utilize GitHub. GitHub pages should be used for hosting user documentation. TAC Governance Documentation and Other Relevant Information: Governance documentation for the TAC must be version controlled. As such, GitHub is the appropriate place to store this information in addition to other relevant TAC materials. Currently https://tac.openwallet.foundation is generated from markdown files in GitHub. SIG or Task Force Deliverables: A separate repo can be set up for SIGs and Task Forces so that they can have versioned control support for their deliverables.
