Although this could be useful, we should be careful of not creating too many channels of communication. Remember that anything that will discussed on that IRC channel won't be "public" so it won't benefit anyone over time unless people actively reading the channel.
So ofc I can't stop you from joining the channel and using it :) but we should try as much as we can to use this mailing list for discussions.
Thanks! David

Hasn’t OFTC started to block Tor (at least partially) which was the reason some people wanted to move #tor away from OFTC? Or am I misinformed there?

Yes, this is probably so, but I don't think we'll get critical mass, for the simple reason that there's no clear place to move to.
We moved from freenode to oftc, long ago, because oftc had better policies around Tor (and they still do).
Some fans have suggested that Tor should set up and run its own irc network. I don't think this is a wise use of our energy.
Long-term I'd like somebody to experiment with an irc proxy that implements anonymous blacklisting, so we can allow Tor users while also banning jerks: https://blog.torproject.org/blog/call-arms-helping-internet-services-accept-... But we are now off-topic for this list. :)
