Does anyone know if Felix has an IRC Channel where devs/lurkers can lurk around and pop occassional questions?

Well, there isn't as far as I know. I'm not even sure if there is a "preferred IRC network" for Apache projects. But I don't mind joining such a channel (say #felix at freenode).

The projects that have a channel usually use irc.freenode.net, although there's no official recommendation for this. Also, it is important to keep the main discussions on the mailing-list so that it is archived and people from all around the world can participate, whatever their timezone.

So IRC is useful for babbling and short questions, or occasional high bandwidth discussions, but any important outcome of these discussions must be reported to the list.
