Promote #pip-tools chat on pypa discord server

@jazzband/pip-tools

There was discussion about chats on jazzband projects, but it's stuck. I've asked to create a chat for pip-tools on PyPA discord server, so here it is. Why can't we use it as an official chat? Any objection?

[ssbarnea]

pypa discord is far more appropriate for discussions, being closer to pip and the rest of packaging tool. You have all my support!

FWIW I kinda like Matrix more than discord.

[ssbarnea]

I like matrix more than discord too, by far. Still, I do think that pip-tool project in particular is better if kept close to pip itself, which happens to have official chat rooms on discord. -- think about it as a reachability issue.

[atugushev]

Agreed with @ssbarnea. Let's get this merged then?

[webknjaz]

I think that regardless of whether this is merged, we do need matrix presence. I've made a Jazzband space there some time ago and Jannis has put it up next to the org URL already. It allows grouping Jazzband projects and it currently has a generic room and it also exposes the old IRC room that's existed for ages. Matrix has a built-in bridge to Libera.chat so this automatically connects people from both networks.
I've seen someone else having a bridge room that connects their matrix room with other spaces, including discord. So we'd definitely have to try setting up such a connection, if it's possible in a low-maintenance way.

This is the link, by the way: https://matrix.to/#/%23jazzband:matrix.org

That's still another merge conflict for the README conversion. Can you wait until that is cleared out?

[atugushev]

@chrysle sure, this could wait.

[chrysle]

@atugushev Thank you! Can I push to your branch then to resolve the conflict?

[webknjaz]

This could still be useful for some. Also, it should be possible to bridge Matrix and discord..

[atugushev]

Resolved conflicts on README.

[webknjaz]

Could you also add a link to setup.cfg or wherever we keep the metadata?

[webknjaz]

Looks like I didn't add matrix there either. I guess this can be separate.
