Flaming and IRC

I tend to avoid IRC for the same reason I avoid a lot of places on the 'net. If anyone in this community has an issue with code I've submitted for public use, I would appreciate such issues be posted here on this list or on the appropriate SourceForge tracker. I especially do not appreciate hearing about vague complaints by rumor of side-channel discussions. I'm not going to agree with everything the community decides, nor is the community always going to agree with me; but unless comments are directed constructively in the correct forum, the only result will be someone getting offended, which is most certainly counterproductive. As an advertisement, anyone who wants to sign up as an active developer in Sourceforge for eunet or eugtk is eagerly invited to do so.
