Sure, but it seems tough to get a time when everyone interested is  
on.

Should we set a time to discuss this?


I think you'd be safe anywhere between 2pm and 10pm PST, although  
that's
only an educated guess based on my recollection of when GTK, QT,  
and Apple

folk are around.


It's been mentioned (by some of the Trolltech folks, I believe) that  
using IRC so exclusively for communication not only makes it very  
easy for information to be lost into the aether but is also  
difficult for those not operating on California (or US) time.  
Perhaps we should be making an effort to have more of our  
discussions take place on webkit-dev, at the very least in the cases  
where they originate on webkit-dev as well?


We could also consider logging the IRC channel. This is something I've  
been hesitant to do before, but it makes asynchronous participation  
easier, and that's important as we span more time zones and get more  
people involved in the project part-time.


Cheers,
Maciej

There is also IRC proxies which logs the channel while you are not
logged in and sends you the log next time you show up.  Personally, I
use Bip http://bip.t1r.net/ to make sure I don't miss a thing on
#webkit-gtk!  But this solution works fine only if you do show up once
per day, if not the logs gets a little big (for #webkit anyway).
