# Persistence
https://rusefi.com/forum and https://github.com/rusefi/ are two permanent systems of record for any rusEFI knowledge. rusEFI Slack does NOT keep history. Forum - anything you say on Slack would get hidden after about 15 days. All valuable data and content has to be persisted outside of Slack.
