It always is a good idea to read IRC and pick up ideas there — especially if a channel isn't logged! If an idea is fruitful, you just get it actioned off-irc (as a bug report, or as an addition to documentation). For decision-making IRC is just more interactive and more ideas get conveyed and analyzed with less effort. E-mail and formal "meetings" are in my view harder due to difficulty in conveying ideas or simply participating where I come up with a small idea and want to simply know what others think of it without putting effort into writing a verbose email. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
