I'm partial to the email and the wiki as they are easily searchable
and archivable. Most people don't know where to find IRC logs and i've
seen them missing tons of times. Thus i treat IRC as no different then
a hallway discussion in the office.

Remember, if it didn't happen on the mailing list it didn't happen at all.
