Gang,
We have now started a more or less permanent IRC channel where I and Stephen
will be hanging out, and hopefully others when online.
It will be used for community bonding, brainstorming and any other
communications that require short loops.
Server: irc.freenode.net
Channel: #ApacheAvalon
Cheers and see you guys on IRC.
Niclas

I was also in touch with Rob Levin (of Freenode) and the board is establishing
"official" contacts between ASF and freenode. This means the ASF may get all
apache-* channels (or something similar) and have official operators of channels.
Of course, all important discussions should be mirrored on the mailing list too. :)
See you in IRC!

That's a good idea.

That would be a great to have for Avalon.

Excellent news. I appreciate the purpose stated above, and I believe that IRC
is the best tool available for that job.
My only concern is that the IRC compliment the mailing list. Sometimes we need
a higher bandwidth solution (quicker turn around) than email, and that is fine
as long as decisions don't get made on IRC that no-one who wasn't there won't
be aware of. Anything semi-official should have the log posted to the mailing list.
The Apache Axis project used IRC on a weekly meeting type of thing, and they
would post the log to the mailing list after it was done.

Yep I can get a hold of it - think Paul Bonkowski did that for us.

Any channel that is "officially" logged should have a logbot that sends a
notice as people sign in. For example, if you join #directory-dev, you will
receive a notice saying:
[#directory-dev] This channel is logged and saved.
I suspect that we can get that logger code for you.

Another project I follow runs a bot that posts 'real-time' logs to the
webserver. They're sliced into daily chunks. When an
interesting/important dialog occurs somebody will:
1) post a link to the log (and a time :)
2) OR cut'n'paste the relevant conversation.
This strategy works well to filter out the noise.

I think it is more than acceptable if you only log the conversations that we
expect to be important. Otherwise there will be a lot of noise on the mailing
list. A lot of what gets said in IRC kind of only makes sense if you have the
whole conversation.

People have brought up logging....
I was thinking to create a small bash script that monitor my log file, and
when it gets to a certain size (20k?), it gets mailed to dev@, so that there
is an official record to go back to.
I can put this up by tomorrow, but I will investigate if I can put a 'daemon'
on a server somewhere, since my own Internet connection is far from reliable.
