Perhaps the IRC session should be logged (by a channel bot?)
and then the transcript mailed to the cocoon-dev mailing list
so that the discussion can be archived.
This would negate the "synchronous" nature of an IRC meet and
alleviate fears that some of the desgin discussions/decisions would
be effectively taken "off line" with the introduction of IRC.
