I'm sure we could make one, but it's probably of limited utility since
not many people are on IRC, and those who are come and go throughout
the day, throughout the month, year, etc.
It'd just end up being another list to try and keep up to date
(alphabetized, of course). You're probably better off just asking
who's around whenever you're on.
On the other hand, a lot of people, especially the people who do use IRC
frequently and are therefore most likely to be found there, keep the same
IRC handle for a long time (I've had mine, bitdancer, since 1995 or so).
So I think there would be utility in such a list even if the updates
were spotty.
But so far I've not seen a core developer without the real name field set
to their, well, real name, so it's not quite as hard to find out who is
who anyway.
