Gitter is a great tool to communicate based on github repos. So you can create an official chat based on this repo.

Hi Spring Gurus,

I'm unfortunately unable to join the "spring-boot" room, as reached when following https://gitter.im/spring-projects/spring-boot referenced under https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot#getting-help

Failed to join

MatrixError: [403] You are not invited to this room. (https://gitter.ems.host/_matrix/client/v3/join/%23spring-projects_spring-boot%3Agitter.im)

Seems I need some form of invite, and "Getting Help" doesn't outline how an invitation is obtained 😕

Hope you're able to clear a path going forward 🙏

It works for me and there should be no need for an invitation. If you're having problems, you'll have to raise them with Gitter support.

@bclozel has reminded me that the channel is now invite-only. This was done due to a huge spam problem on Gitter and the team not having time to deal with it. We'll update the getting help page to remove the Gitter references as we no longer recommend using it.

@bclozel Is there a way to request an invite?
