admin-announcements

In response to feedback from the community and discussion amongst the admins, we have renamed a couple of channels: • #community-development became #spam-reports and the topic/description updated to make the channel purpose clear • #growth became #community-development because there was overlap in purpose The Welcome Message (in the Clojurians GH repo) and the Welcome Message DM'd to new members has been updated to reflect this change. All new members are auto-joined to both channels (previously only the old, dual-purpose channel was auto-joined). This will make it easier for folks to discover how to report spammers and scammers, as well as allowing community growth discussions to happen without the interruption of spam reports. It will also mean that admins won't have to decide whether to delete a spam report after handling it (since it will no longer be "noise" in amongst any community growth discussions, and will act as examples of what we do not allow here). I will update this post once the work is complete. If you are an existing member who is interested in discussions about expanding the use of Clojure and growing the community, please join the new #community-development channel (sorry, we can't auto-add existing members from one channel into another).
