I disagree with it.
I think /discussion/ in a mailing list is a great way to get broad input.
IRC gets narrow - whoever is on at the time - input
etherpads get very little input *unless* you reach out over IRC and
lists to get the input
Etherpads are very good for *assembling* the result of discussions and
debugging plans and so forth.
Wiki pages are great for doing adhoc manuals and living
google-searchable reference material.
