   To try to bubble the good stuff to the top there is a new channel on the II   
   Infinitum slack space called #best-of-ii-infinitum   
      
   The intention is to capture messages that the A2 community should be aware   
   of from any channel.   
      
   Those who are time poor may appreciate less to consume. Those who aren’t   
   regular visitors may use this as a way of catching up.   
      
   Regards
