I was talking about converting current -dev to general developer

I skimmed it. Another channel seems kind of insane (#wikimedia-devel was
proposed).
I'd recommend using #wikimedia, #wikimedia-tech, #wikimedia-dev,
#mediawiki, or #mediawiki-scripts for the purposes you're describing.
#wikipedia is mostly dead these days, but if you wanted to even use that
channel, nobody would object.
+1. No new channels, no new mailing lists, it just serves to fracture
discussion even further.

There is already a pile of channels all over the place that are supposed
to have relevant discussion. I try to idle in them. Though frankly they're
so separated I basically never see any relevant discussions inside the
other channels.
I was previously in #mediawiki, #wikimedia-dev, #wikimedia-labs,
#wikimedia-office, #wikimedia-tech, and #wikimedia-mobile.
I'm subscribed to 6 different channels on MediaWiki stuff already. And a
few days ago I dumped an idea in #mediawiki. And was suggested to go and
join #wikimedia-wikidata too.
Frankly, it's a blessing that FreeNode has dropped their 20 channel
restriction.
