Hello,

Discourse is awesome for sharing thoughts and paving ways.  
However, I believe some smaller angles of ruby-bench would go faster with instant discussion.  
A specific architectural point, or just to say someone is working on something in specific for example.

That’s why I just registered the **##ruby-bench** channel on freenode.  
Feel free to join.

@sam: right now, I’m the only one with admin access on that room.  
Let me know your freenode username and I’ll add you.

Is the IRC channel “dead”? There was only one user “eregon” in #ruby-bench earlier, or did I just get in there at a bad time?

@wpp: sorry for my lack of reply. I was the only one on this IRC channel, so stopped coming a few months ago.
