I see this PR removes the link to the odh slack - as it appears to no longer be working, that would seem like a good idea! Is there an alternative real time chat for the community?

Great question -- I was curious about that, too!

@opendatahub-io/administrators might be able to help us?

I'll go ahead and merge this as the changes look good, thank you for the pull request!

On the question about slack: about a year ago we decided that we would deprioritize efforts to build an ODH community and instead focus our efforts on existing upstream communities, primarily Kubeflow. As a result, we've deprecated and/or cancelled many of the community-isms (e.g. community meetings and the slack workspace). The Slack workspace still exists, but is not very active nor do we encourage the core ODH team to actively monitor it. I'd recommend instead engaging in Slack workspaces for relevant upstream communities.
