I'd agree - I admire the transparency of IRC meetings, however, the
bandwidth of them is problematic. The fact that the FESCo meeting is
now two hours every week is somewhat frustrating, but it needs to be
that long just to get through the agenda over IRC.

I think we can do a bit better to try and document where we have
contrasting views - our move to attempt to do some summarization via
gobby may help with that. But as stated before, oftentimes there isn't
any information to put about votes, just because there aren't any
votes.
