While we're on this topic, can I also ask if it is the intention of someone to

Bill, I realize that. That's opt-out, and anyone new to IRC is not going
to know that. So I am asking for the opposite, which may not be a
current feature of IRC, but that those who wish to see Zoia's replies
(and who therefore know about Zoia) should opt-in.
Another option is a separate
Karen, I don't think there's any way we could do that. zoia is just another
participant in the channel, just like you or I would be, so it's exactly like
interacting with another person.
And one thing that I think is *somewhat* important to note before we give zoia

I'd like to propose that zoia (the IRC bot that provides help and
entertainment in the #code4lib IRC channel) have some of its normal plugins
disabled during conf. With three or four times as many people online during

I'd be loathe to gag @tdih, because it's educational and only gets called once

If you say
