Please explain 'assimilate' in this context.
From the channel name it sounds like it only covers video.
There is also #demudi - concerned with the Debian Multimedia Distribution
(&active) and #fave which was set up for organising a freesoftware audio
visual event in the UK last year (sleeping). If we find we have a lot of
business and enthusiastic IRCers it might be worth setting up a dedicated
channel, but right now there doesn't really seem to be the need. Certainly
all groups using Debian for multimedia work should be consulted. I guess this
is your meaning.
A wiki could be useful for the more persistent kind of conversation needed to
pull the Debian Multimedia Policy together
