The only channels I find have lots of backlog are #debian-devel,
#debian-mentors, #debian-release, #debconf-team and sometimes
#debian-admin. The first one includes a bit of off-topic chatter. The
first two are non-essential and the rest are pretty team specific. For
the others I think most people could probably easily keep up.

I've been wishing I had time to organise people to do a "this week on
IRC" section in DPN, probably hard to find some people though.

Anyway, point taken, there is a lot of volume on IRC.
