Hi thank you for asking. We think the goal sounds noble but there is no way we think that everyone here has given consent to have all of their messages mined for content. There are thousands of active members and also thousands of previously active members and we have no way of informing people or anticipating their choice. I think we have to decline giving the corpus of all messages on this server to another entity for any reason. I hope this doesn’t prove fatal to your project. There is hopefully other ways you can get this information. Github stars, http://grep.app searches, clojar download stats, a community survey, are all ways you could possibly achieve this goal without harvesting every message ever sent on this slack server. We hope you understand but we feel compelled to politely decline this request.
