Update the research documentation on open source team communication tools in Meta
In the 2017's Google Code-in, students researched open source team communication and collaboration software tools, documented them and recommended their use for Wikimedia's outreach activities, events, and team communication: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research_on_open_source_team_communication_tools
In the last two years, the pieces of software listed in the documentation have received new updates and features. There are also a few tools like Gitter (that was previously not open source but has recently become), Discourse, and others that are missing from the page. This task is about updating the documentation for existing tools (including screenshots), researching new tools, and adding them to the page.
Note: Please do not make direct changes to the page on meta-wiki. Instead, create a user account (if you don't have one already) on meta.wikimedia.org. Then create a subpage of your user page in meta-wiki (something like https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:YourUsername/Sandbox , replace YourUsername by your username).
See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Editing for help on editing a wiki page.
It is totally up to you how many tools you want to add (new tools) or provide an update (existing ones) for in the documentation :)
