I like the idea too, I'll start idling a little in the chat. We should find a way to protocol the discussions there to make the knowledge gained available later.

Interesting.  I didn't know about the IRC channel.  The hbase group uses
IRC extensively.

In the RDF scene we've had #swig (previously #rdfig) in continuous use
for about a decade. It's not easy getting critical mass, but we found
having logs and a few tools really helped with the timezone-aspects
(see  http://chatlogs.planetrdf.com/rdfig/2001.html
http://chatlogs.planetrdf.com/swig/ and nearby).

Freenode don't seem to offer logging tools out-of-the-box but there is
at least a reasonable Web-based client http://webchat.freenode.net/
