The only channels I find have lots of backlog are #debian-devel, #debian-mentors, #debian-release, #debconf-team and sometimes #debian-admin. The first one includes a bit of off-topic chatter. The first two are non-essential and the rest are pretty team specific. For the others I think most people could probably easily keep up. I've been wishing I had time to organise people to do a "this week on IRC" section in DPN, probably hard to find some people though. Anyway, point taken, there is a lot of volume on IRC. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
