Hi,
in the last months I've been dealing with other ASF projects on IRC, and
I actually enjoyed the kind of real-time interaction you can get there.
IMO you'll always need to keep an eye on not crossing the boundary of
what needs to be communicated on mailing lists, but I've found such
experience particularly useful.
I remember that we had a similar discussion on 2012 [1] but since we've
taken no action afterwards, I am here to propose opening a #syncope
channel on Freenode, with support of our dear infra guys [2] - which
should also provide JIRA & GIT integration.
WDYT?
