Right now we have IRC channels split this way.  To be
honest, the IRC gets a lot more traffic than the mailing
list in terms of discussion and help.  This makes sense to
me since Moose is rapidly growing and also I've noticed
that for Perl there have been a preference to IRC over
mailing lists and other types of dicussion (blogging, etc). 
There is a good part to this, since IRC is immediate, but of
course there is a downside since IRC is very unstructured
and it's not searched by the big search engines, which I
think hurts us PR wise.

Try irc://irc.perl.org#moose for general moose questions
and irc://irc.perl.org#moose-dev for moose new development.
