I would like to be very clear that IRC cannot fully replace
conf calls : during a one hour mandatory conf call as it happens
in other WG, people present who don't object to decisions agree
with them. Here, because of time shift, your IRC office hours
have only little overlap with mine for instance, and I cannot
consider I agree with something I just did not have the opportunity
to discuss, only because your days are my nights...
See the problem, I suppose ? IRC is easy to use, helpful, but that's
only a tool for brainstorm if you don't use it as a 1 hour conf tool
and I respectfully suggest we keep it far below the radar compared to
the mailing-list.
