The discussion was at http://piratepad.net/KBviCWUlA3.

I'm curious what you think of this kind of discussion, as opposed to
IRC. Google docs is also an option (it has a chat).  I think the
downside is that unlike IRC, which is logged at
http://colabti.org/irclogger/irclogger_logs/sympy, it's a little
harder to search through these discussions afterwords.
