So I can see that pushing to make it a business meeting would not be too welcome. What I would like is an online sprint with a temporary #python-triage channel, with at least one commit-developer present. It should be noted that #python-dev is quite low-traffic. There is less than one message per minute on average, and not often more than one conversation at a time.

I will take a look.

The other problem I have is being dropped or timed out, and not having/knowing a way to get auto-reconnected to the channel. Thus, I could miss a response even if I do get one. I never get drops or timeouts. I suppose any decent IRC client will handle connection issues for you.

Is Chatzilla not decent, or is there a better Windows client.

I have it set to reconnect when disconnected and to 'msg NickServe identify' when connected, but I do not see any way to wait for that to complete before issuing 'join #python'. I found a box under #python for 'rejoin when kicked' but I do not know if that will work for disconnections.
