Hi, i agree with Benedikt. Not everybody has the time to hang around in the IRC channel and at least there will be much more unnecessary stuff which you have to filter out..is it important? is it not important? And at least somebody of the WG has to filter the important stuff which means much more work for this guy(s). I think one place for policy discussions is enough and the mailinglist is the better place for it than an IRC channel. Except for that an IRC channel for general IPv6 discussions, questions etc. is a good thing but not for policy discussions.
