Well, both is an extension, just one is fine for fast responses, and the other

opposite from what is wanted.
I can use IRC in the most basic form.
That and time constrains will prevent me from attending antibug fest.
What is the best can be decided on the run. I don't see the need to insist on
one communication channel that fits for some purposes, and not for the other.
I agree with you and jdd: I just have never used IRC and I don't like it.
I'm biased because till recently I did not have a permanent network
connection, so irc was out of the question. Also, what I write I do slowly
and thoughtfully, I can't correspond usefully on chat: I go back, read
what I have just wrote and correct it.
I suppose many non English speakers would think similarly.
Also, I understand others will prefer chat: so let's have more than one
method.

As an English speaker, I never have liked IRC either, it along with
Mobile texting remind me too much of the old clattering Reed Teletype
machines of a bygone age, they were old hat from the day they were
invented and worse still, built and shipped.
