Re: irc channel #contribs.org on freenode.net

Up to now contribs.org has chosen to provide ways of communication that 
can be archived and organised in different ways and fully searchable. A 
IRC channel is hard to archive and search in such a way (It can be done, 
I know). With the contribs.org forums and lists we think there are 
sufficient ways to communicate, share and build an archive.

As Jeff has mentioned earlier, a new site will also provide wiki 
capabilities so everybody can submit their how-to/tips/tricks/links etc. 
(Full text search)

the #e-smith channel on freenode has been quiet for a long time so there 
  was no immediate need to claim an additional contribs.org channel. 
contribs.org was admin of the channel for several month's though, but we 
finally dropped it.

regards,
Hsing-Foo
