detect standup participants from channel/group
Right now, you have to configure the standup participants through the config file. This is less than ideal.
Ideally we would set participants to the users who are members of the standup
channel, but our API has some limitations:
- It does not return a member list for a public channel
- It fails to return private channels, even if our bot is a member
Another option could be to set users as part of a group. This has a downside, since groups are not available in free accounts, so we will have to keep the current solution for teams using free accounts.
I also do not have permissions to create groups on the Outside Open account, and will have to ask Greg to create one for me in order to test.
Solutions to try, in order of preference 0. Fix the API to return a member list for public channels (if possible) 0. Fix the API to work for private channels (and get it to return a member list) 0. Add support for groups
