Good point. Agree.

IRC and mailing lists are not good places to lurk for beginners. Both
require a commitment of time, knowledge and resources.

Even once you start lurking it's either ML silence (not everyone is
aware of archives, and they are not very inviting), or lack of context
(IRC) on who is behind all this nicknames, what they are talking
about, etc.

I'm really interested on this. Shall we open a new thread, or maybe
meet on IRC for a chat?[1]
