I still follow the discussions here.
Never on IRC, sorry. No free PC access on the job, just one of the reasons ..

Aagghhhhh!!! Why is everything always done over IRC????
The neglection of the reactos mailing lists is one of this _/big/_ things this project does wrong.
-It forces the community into a sort of hidden niche group and alienates people who don't use IRC
-It gives the impression that reactos activity is low. There are thousands of people who follow this project aren't on IRC and have no idea of what is going on.
-It arguably deters new people from joining because they can't really get to grips with the project without becoming a slave to IRC
-It means important discussions are missed, even by the core team, if they aren't watching the IRC chat 24/7 or miss a PM
I could go on and on with reasons of why you neglect the mailing lists is so harmful, but I fear no one will listen to my cries.
Maybe I should vent my frustration in IRC for the niche community, and we can all have an internal discussion about it???
