I think this could be a fun project.
Besides IRL (which is hard to organize) I think other real time communication could be tried out as well. What do you think about the following options:
Does anyone know a good IRC infrastructure that allows for quickly entering and displaying TeX formulas?
Google Wave could be excellent for this, because it acts in part as a wiki (as well as a bunch of other things), meaning we could archive our discussions and come back to them. Also, it has Latex, which is probably necessary.
Also, it's federated. Thus, if our hosts wanted to set up a Less Wrong Wave they could do so without needing to rely on Google storing our discussions. On the other hand, setting up a federated Wave certainly isn't necessary.
