Easy Alex, this isn't appropriate. You know that I'm not against discussing 
things on IRC, but it isn't always convenient, and important discussions may 
occur while others are at work/school/sleep and unable to participate. Any 
decisions that affect (community) people outside the discussion should occur 
on a medium where opinions/votes can be registered over a period of time, 
i.e. ML, forum, obby. That doesn't mean they can be discussed/argued forever. 
I think any future votes or discussion should have a time limit decided prior 
to starting the discussion.
