Hello list,
Those of us who spend much time on #archlinux-women, and other #archlinux channels, will have encountered phrik, the archlinux bot.
Many people are curious about him, so I thought I'd send some info to this list. phrik is a supybot. The Supybot handbook is at http://supybook.fealdia.org/devel/.
Hello, I suppose people might be curious about Arch Women's other bot too. Her name is awbot. [1] awbot is actually a collection of bots for different uses. Currently two of them are in service. One logs the channel and the other announces to -dev git commits pushed to Arch Women's server. The bots are written in bash. There is work on a unified bot written in python. [2] The python bot will do generic announcements of any event, not just git pushes. We might need a generic announcement bot soon, before the python bot is finished. In that situation we may use irkerd. [3] fsckd [1] https://archwomen.org/wiki/aw-tech:awbot [2] https://github.com/meskarune/autobot [3] https://github.com/archwomen/awbot-irk
