Re: [edk2-announce][RFC] Collaboration Software: Microsoft Teams

[Jeremiah Cox <jerecox@microsoft.com>]

On the topic of Microsoft Teams, it has a free option, limited to 300 users.  More than 300 users requires an enterprise license, starting at $8/user/month.  There is a steep discount for some types of non-profits, but I don't know if we would qualify.

More details on the offering here:  https://products.office.com/en-us/microsoft-teams/free

Highlights:
* Unlimited chat messages and search.
* Built-in audio and video calling for individuals, groups, and full team meetups.
* 10 GB of team file storage plus additional 2 GB per person for personal storage.
* Integrated, real-time content creation with Office Online apps, including built-in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote.
* Unlimited app integrations with 140+ business apps to choose from-including Adobe, * Evernote, and Trello.
* Ability to communicate and collaborate with anyone inside or outside your organization, backed by Microsoft's secure, global infrastructure.

If this sounds like a viable option to the community, please email me and I'll add you as a guest on our Project Mu Teams channel for evaluation purposes.

Thanks,
Jeremiah

Subject: [edk2] [edk2-announce][RFC] Collaboration Software

We are looking to augment our current communication methods (mailing list / IRC) with a modern solution for group collaboration. The goal is to allow folks to communicate effectively without interrupting the current patch review system, as well as enabling any future systems with more robust options.

Specific features we are looking for include attachments (currently blocked by the list), robust logging, modern chat, and integration with tools like bug trackers and source repositories (APIs, or better yet, pre-rolled plugins).

Our current contenders are Google Groups and Groups.io. This RFC is in hopes of finding other options to evaluate.

Cheers,
Stephano
