Since Gitter has now moved to the Matrix Foundation (London) and now has an updated bridge for our room, we need to provide easy onboarding for users. I spoke with Gitter support (Matrix) and they provided the new URL. Which even shows up when using iOS app or Web via Element.io https://matrix.to/#/#OpenRefine_OpenRefine:gitter.im

OpenRefine is a Java-based power tool that allows you to load data, understand it,
|
|
clean it up, reconcile it, and augment it with data coming from
|
|
the web. All from a web browser and the comfort and privacy of your own computer.
