Linux Kernel IRC Room?

Linux Kernel IRC Room?

[Alexander Valys]

Is there a kernel development irc room anywhere?  If not, does anyone think 
it might be useful?

how do you hold a real-time chat with people around the world? the fact
that the key people would seldom be on at the same time severly limits
it's usefullness. the mailing list does a pretty good job as is.

I'd just like to point out that it's called a channel, not a
room.  Room is a term introduced by AOL, and I don't think it has
much to do with IRC.

there's discussion on irc.linpeople.org and irc.slashnet.org... but I'm
not sure the kernel needs an offical channel...
