Anyone that wants to participate can. Like Geoff pointed out you do not need to make the teleconferences. However, if you wish to use IRC you can and save yourself a long distance phone charge. Many people outside the USA use IRC.
Except, as WAI will tell you itself, the IRC channel is merely for notetaking and is not a free-standing method of "contributing" to the call.
