Did I miss that email? Can you link to it on the archives?
3) #drupal can remain in whatever weird, intermediary state it's in now.
3) is undesireable.
Agreed.
1) is also undesireable I believe because people will have harder time
finding the dev channel, the theme channel, the whatever. The announcement
should actually encourage them to lurk in #drupal-dev and ask devel
questions there. I always found it baffling that support deals with coding
as well.
How is it harder now to find -theme or -dojo? All it takes is to add it on d.o
(and g.d.o and whatever) where we list the IRC channels, and that is it.
I think repurposing #drupal is the most obvious solution, and as others
pointed out, look at #ubuntu and #gentoo and #debian ...
This leaves 2)
Unless I get *very* convincing arguments against it, I will act on that.
Given the activity of the room and my time to code just a bot based on bot
module, let's call the day next Monday.
