IMO the IRC Channels are a nice thing overall, but not for developer
contacting.
Beside developing, doing daily jobs, etc, etc - where should we/they
get the time from?
The IRC Channels were not any 'supported' communication channel up to now.

Nope. It isn't a closed ring. We are reading the lists, filling the
tracker and doing different jobs for and around Nagios.
We can't be everywhere at the same time.
Embracing more: For sure, Nagios just did a 600% increase of
developers just in a few weeks.
Just start yourself with debugging, patching, writing some nifty docs
about your favorites in nagios and contribute them back to the wiki or
similar.

Regards,
Hendrik
