There is nothing wrong with IRC as a medium, but since the interaction is faster the rate at which you reach the end state is also faster -- positive or negative. When there are enough negative arguments it very easily leads to an explosive situation. on a ML, there is a significant delay such that this "heat" just cools down. but said these negative aspect, there is a positive aspect also, that if used properly things can be achieved faster, depending on the people in the discussion.
- Apparently irc sucks. I believe the mailing list is a much better medium for this kind of discussions.
