So if I read that Steve is assigned to clean up RPMforge and I haven't
heard of that before and there was no discussion about it, I wonder how
that's going to work out.

Well, this was mentioned on email to the packages list, and other people did post followup emails as well.

There is a task that someone was offering to take up - I am just trying to facilitate something that we've not been able to do since the beginning of time ( well, since the very start of my awareness of rpmforge, there has been talk of a cleanup ).

IRC is a fantastic means of communication when people need to pair on a task. Email isnt going to hack it - and the cost of telephone conversations makes it impossible to work with. The added win from IRC being that there are logs that can be looked at by people who would have some level of interest.

I am totally unaware of any other means of productive pairing in the open source world, that does not fall apart with induced latency ( that most of us need to work and contend with since its not always possible to sync up when we are all in the same state of play / work mode ).
