I'm personally not enthusiastic about real-time synchronous messaging (for
the already mentioned reason that it does not produced structured, reusable
content), and I think it would be nice to gather the opinion of the people
that populate the IRC channel today.
(Plus gitter.im is a proprietary, for-profit platform, meh.)
Yotam, would you be willing to go on IRC and have a chat about a gitter.im
room with the chan, to see what they think?
It would also be nice to have a gitter/IRC bridge (I hear that this
exists). Who would be volunteering to take care of the gitter stuff and
make sure that the bridge works properly?
