I am going to agree half with Victor and half with Cory. A Cory says,
we already have a well astablished claclulator channel called
#calc-ti, but I believe this is, for the most part a non-ZShell
channel. Each ticalc.org list SHOULD have its own IRC channel. Why?
Think about it, if a couple TI-82 BASIC people are on there and we
decide to have a party like the 1st aniversary, then we will be
ruining their conversation with stuff that they don't have a clue what
to make of. I also think that IRC can be potentialy MUCH more
productive than e-mail. Instead of "type something, wait a day for
the answer" it's "type something, wait 5 seconds for the answer!!!"
So why isn't this list on IRC, of cource it's harder to stay up to
date on IRC than e-mail, but still I think with how slow things
actually get on list-zshell it would be a lot better. We would
probably have had a RF link more than a mounth ago if it had been
discussed on IRC instead of list TI-Hardware. We need more realtime
disscussions.
Please, don't nitpick this e-mail to shreds and flame me, it just
comes accross looking egotisticle!!!
