I disagree. IM does not provide for communication that can be |
| 15 |
looked-up, which is important. I post something, many people will look |
| 16 |
at it and some of them will reply. That is not possible with IM. A |
| 17 |
mailing list is also sub-optimal. A forum or bugzilla is needed where |
| 18 |
information/communication is stored and can be categorized and looked up. |
