I see that IPython has started doing public Google+ hangouts for some of their core discussions. See for example https://plus.google.com/105051551851350439748/posts/411V5Gyps1f.
I think this is really cool. The hangout is basically a really intelligent multi-way video chat that requires no setup. The face to face interaction is much more effective than text interaction for making design decisions. You can also hook up a Google Docs document if you want to whiteboard something, or keep minutes. And if the hangout is public, others can watch and comment in real time, or watch the conversation later. We should do some of this for SymPy. In particular, I think it would be a great alternative to IRC for weekly GSoC meetings. They could still be public and recorded (just make the hangout public instead of private), but you get the advantages of face to face meeting.
