No - mostly because IRC CANNOT BE USED to make project decisions. It's lovely for beating down a problem, kicking around ideas, but those ideas MUST COME BACK TO [EMAIL PROTECTED] Decisions themselves must be made on [EMAIL PROTECTED] It's the responsibility of the project participants to grab any useful log thread, forward it on to the dev@ list to get people thinking and voting. Automatically capturing IRC logs undermines this responsibility and harms the project (for exactly the reasons you point out above). --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
