We had -m for a short period this year already. AFAIR users then came
into the channel and asked support or ebuild development questions, so
it was reverted to +m.

Yeah, I kind of feel it should be -m, as well. If need be, we can be
more proactive about kickbanning people (ops enough, after all).

Now I wonder if the +m on IRC was set proactively or reactively. If the
former it could be worth a try to -m.

Yes, and i think that it was done for a reason. But nobody stops you
from requesting temporarily voice on #gentoo-dev and when you
contributions will be marked as significant - gentoo/contributor cloak,
that will give you permanent voice in #gentoo-dev.

You should understand that #gentoo-dev is channel for developer's
communication primarily and it is not so restricted, as you think.

For example, #gentoo-infra is totally restricted to developers only,
other interested parties should be added to channel ACLs explicitly or
should get invite there.
