I don't want a proliferation of Slack channels, but strongly believe
human conversation and automated notifications aren't a good mix.
Usually the humans are the losers.

The more active our ecosystem gets, the more the slack channel fills
up with JIRA creation and closing. Since we're async, we regularly
have discussions that can span multiple days so the "Qbot vs. Human"
ratio gets pretty bad and discussions get shunted up off the top of
the screen.
As a consequence I find myself interfacing with #cassandra-dev less
frequently since syncing up with what's going on has more friction. I
think it'd benefit the community to have a place for humans to talk
human things and then go to the #cassandra-noise channel for more
detailed JIRA movement updates.
I believe we've discussed this previously but my ponymail searching
hasn't turned up signal to load up that old context.
So: thoughts?
