I have weighed this for a quite bit now - but I still can't get the reasoning behind it. Even if I'd assume for a technical second that Hans Petter Holen and/or the WG Chairs collective and/or the NCC board would give such an IRC channel a sort of blessing: why would you need it? It appears to me that this is very similar to BoFs: they meet when a sufficient number of people think it's useful to meet. And then they do! The NCC is a mere facilitator here, organising the tech necessities: a room with chairs, some water maybe - but that's it. OTOH, this bunch of people could also easily meet in the next pub around the corner. Without anybody's prior blessing. Or such. Cheers, -C.
