I also proposed a Forum on one of the hottest boards on the net INReview
www.inreview.com and it was poo pooed so I just dropped it. I am one of the
Administrators and could have had it set up in minutes.

Hi Everyone,

thomas@kenshi.dk asked me about an IRC channel.  My reaction was "sure, why
not?"  Now, this reaction has gotten me into deep water often but a Xitami
IRC channel seems harmless enough.  Not like that time with the... but
that's
another story.

Now Mark Doigny points out that there have been alternatives to this mailing
list proposed before, and they tend to fizzle out.

What's my position on this?  Well, first, I think any party succeeds only
when
the guests are fun.  What I mean is: iMatix can sponsor or encourage
different kinds of forum but it comes down to what you, our guests and
fellow
party goers, want.

IRC can be fun, especially for quick answers to easy questions.  It's less
intellectual than email lists.  Perhaps after all these years of being very
serious with Xitami it's time to try to get onto bash.org.

OK, I'll join #xitami on irc.freenode.net and follow the discussion
occasionally.  If the IRC channel seems useful, we'll announce it on
xitami.com.
