Well, it has three times more users than the OFTC channel and lots of discussion daily. Your argument about security makes no sense, care to elaborate on that? Also, I think an IRC channel serves a different purpose than the mailing list. The list is perfect for a threaded and archivable history of lengthy topics, whereas the channel is better suited for ad hoc questions and beginner questions that often are repeated. Additionally, as said earlier in the thread, the plan is not to replace the list. We're discussing how to take better care of those users that already use IRC and prefer to get help there. Most of the time we refer these users to the mailing list anyway; for example if they got questions or opinions that already has a thread on the list. -- noor |_|O|_| |_|_|O| Noor Christensen |O|O|O| n...@fripost.org ~ 0x401DA1E0 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
