Hello,
I figured I would cross post this link for the folks that use Slack as an alternative to nodeway's Discord or the Odforce IRC.
Tech-Artists.org is similar to Odforce.net in many ways, but they traditionally cater to the gaming community with multiple software as opposed to features/commercials and houdini.
There is a channel #houdini where you can ask real time Houdini questions.
