The advantage of persistent and common channels is that other people are |
| 19 |
informed and it's archived. |

A discussion you had somewhere else, as far as I (and surely others) are |
| 22 |
concerned, didn't happen. You can't reference it in the future because |
| 23 |
it's not archived, and people will be upset because you actively worked |
| 24 |
around the established communication paths to avoid them. |

Sooo ... just drop a message here of what you intend to do, with a short |
| 27 |
rationale maybe, and then there'll be less people being upset because |
| 28 |
you don't communicate (in the right channels) |
