As I and other have stated, IRC (and other real-time methods)
have their uses, but that it is too easy for them to
grow and expand beyond what they were originally set to
do.

This is, after all, not some willy-nilly "consideration"
that we just felt made sense. Instead, it's something
which has proven itself as a valuable condition,
time and time again, for the last 10+ years.

Hi,

What could be the problem of any real-time communication medium usage between some community members as long as every one agrees code and design decisions are made on the mailing list?

I think one way of looking at this is simply remembering that
the ASF values community over code. Yes, IRC and other
real-time communication methods means "quicker" code
development, etc, but it places, IMO, an undue barrier
to the development of the community.
