I wouldn't say it's premature optimization, we create channels all the time. #openstack-dev is a general discussion channel, which is used for anything that doesn't fit anywhere else. If you look at recent logs, you'll see that it is used for general community pings, but also lengthy inter-project discussions. Here we have a clear topic, and TC members need to pay a certain level of attention to whatever is said. Mixing it with other community discussions (which I have to prioritize lower) just makes it harder to pay the right level of attention to the channel. Basically I have trouble to see how we can repurpose a general discussion channel into a specific group office-hours channel (different topics, different level of attention to be paid). Asking people to use a ping list when they *really* need to get TC members attention feels like a band-aid. It's pretty clear now some see drawbacks in reusing #openstack-dev, and so far the only benefit expressed (beyond not having to post the config change to make it happen) is that "everybody is already there". By that rule, we should not create any new channel :) -- Thierry Carrez (ttx)
