Well the advantage would be that many developers will read about what we
talk and could step in and help us. The disadvantage is in my opionion
that this will lead to endless discussion without solving the real
problems. So I think a new channel would be better for this and if we
need more help on a problem we can move it to debian-devel.

Well this would be good, as the telefon-costs here in germany are high
and most of the users have dialup-connections. So our telefon company
would earn a lot more money if we choose a time earlier than 20:00 UTC.
So I would recommend the idea from Josip as it allows me to lower my
telefon-costs.
Cheers
