Here's hoping Automattic has enough influence to move the WordPress.org open source and community discussions (which are currently hosted on Slack, but used to take place on IRC) to Matrix too.

That's the hope - the pressure is on the Riot/Matrix side to ensure that the transition is a no-brainer in terms of UX :)

Are we currently able to easily integrate an existing community (usernames) to a matrix server?
