Hi Kalle,

We've never used IRC for the project before, so I don't believe it exists.

But even if this existed, I don't know that I (personally) would be too
enthusiastic about using such a thing.  I'm fairly certain that IRC ports
are not enabled at my work network for one so I couldn't be of much help,
but more important, any asked-and-answered questions in an IRC chat room
wouldn't be searchable on the 'net - unless there is some service that
performs archival for IRC somewhere.

So any knowledged dissemminated or gained would be lost to anyone not in the
chat room.  I personally prefer to use archived mailing lists because when
people have a problem, they can use Google and come across previous
discussions that could help them, saving everyone time by not having to
answer the same questions over again.

That's just my personal preference for my own usage - I have no opinion as
to whether or not the community sets one up.

Cheers,

Les
