背景

SkyWalking PMC已经在2023年6月达成一致意见，考虑到QQ群的维护性，决定不再保留QQ群，并于2023年7月解散。

讨论全文如下

#### [Discuss/Vote] Deprecate QQ groups and switch to skywalking-cn slack channel

Hi SkyWalking team SkyWalking was my personal and China only project, so I created QQ group(now 2 groups for over 3k ppl). 
Now, SkyWalking is a gloabl community, so, ASF skywalking channel is there for English users in years. 
Now, I think it is time to move forward for Chinese users as well. 
The burdens of maintaining QQ groups are too much, 
and lack of thread mechanism to keep context. Neither search support. 
I want to propose a 2 months immigration plan from QQ to slack channel. 
People could choose to leave, or join new channels. At the end of Aug., 
I will officially dismiss these two groups, and no financial load for committers to keep these two QQ groups. 
Please reply this if you have concerns and most importantly, you are willing to accept those groups to maintain. I am so tired to keep eyes in two places.

#### [Result] [Discuss/Vote] Deprecate QQ groups and switch to skywalking-cn slack channel

I have sent out the invitation to both QQ groups many times. 
I believe we don't need to wait for end of August as we have received a lot of slack requests to CN channel. 
If they have interests to keep eyes on the project still, they have known what is happening.
