But ignoring that, I don't see anyone talking about "time": how long
are you suggesting to keep these logs? 'Forever' is really not
something I'm comfortable with.
On a side note, I confess that I'm already annoyed when people copy
and paste pieces of discussions from IRC to Bugzilla as a shortcut, I
hope they don't start linking IRC logs instead with persistent
official logs available.
Can you elaborate on these two points? I'm not sure why someone should
feel differently about, say, conversations about a bug that happen in
Bugzilla being archived perpetually, as opposed to similar
conversations on IRC.
I consider Bugzilla an official communication channel, where I write in
my best English and only about things pertaining the subject at matter.
Bugzilla is also our interface with core contributors and developers
outside of Mozilla, information should be clear and self-contained as
much as possible (i.e. my grudge against copy & paste of IRC discussions
out of context).
On IRC I might get involved in whimsy discussions, and that's not
something I necessarily feel like sharing outside of the people I'm
talking with, especially in a persistent log. Knowing that the
discussion is logged will definitely change the way I interact with
other people, it will become another channel where I have to restrain
myself.
