Yes, it's come up semi-often (also Joshua mentioned this to me over
IRC earlier in the week where I basically told him the same).
There's been a general consensus that the Infra team would love to
see the IRC bots it manages (gerribot, meetbot, statusbot) rewritten
in a common framework, preferably a modern and extensible one. The
last time anyone looked into options (which admittedly was probably
at least a year ago), errbot seemed like the leading contender for
our desired language and featureset.
To echo Morgan, we just need (and would really appreciate!) someone
working on the implementation.
I'll see what I can do in my (spare time), but others are also willing
to jump in and learn some errbot ;)
The previously mentioned examples of plugins (repeated here) are IMHO
good things to look at if people are interested in messing around:
- https://github.com/harlowja/gerritbot2
- https://review.openstack.org/#/c/343857/
I guess if people want to jump in and explore, message me as well on IRC
(or email or smoke signals...),

I have a couple of commands I'd like to add, too. How about if we
set up a repo for errbot plugins and start working on them in the
review system? Then when we feel like we've hit a critical mass
of "usefulness" we can start adding an infra-hosted copy of the new
bot to channels, and migrating remaining features from the older
bots over to the new one.
Sounds like a good idea to me :)
What shall we name it??? (I'll be online in IRC in a few, in internal
standup currently, prob can just discuss there, ha).
