[wp-ui] Why are we using a maillist?

[Dre Armeda]

Automattic is using P2 to manage some of their projects and the 
wordpress-dev efforts run through P2 as well and it seems to work. 
Scheduling meetings, discussions, etc. IRC is another great mechanism 
that is currently being underutilized for the UI list. I think we 
leverage a P2 site and IRC for the UI list and it will foster greate 
discussion.

Cheers,
