[Lubuntu-desktop] IRC bots
Hi gang, *ubot2* in amongst my travels I've had a chat about the little room bots that live on rooms like #ubuntu-beginners that people can ask questions of (try entering !grub and !grub2 on that room). I have been informed that we can have the ubot2 added to #lubuntu if we wish. This would give access to a quick way of people getting information. I've also asked about the adding to the ubot2 (for example lxterminal) and have been told that this can be requested. *meeting bot* We can also have a meeting bot added, so any meeting that we hold on #lubuntu will be automatically formatted and archived. Zach had a play with it on the #ubuntu-beginners-wiki channel. The result of it can be found at http://mootbot.libertus.co.uk/ubuntu-beginners-wiki/2010/ubuntu-beginners-wiki.2010-07-11-15.57.html (I hasten to add, it was just Zach learning from Alan a bit about how the bot works, with me looking on ;-) ) I propose that we have this functionality added to #lubuntu, please let me know whether to ask for either or both to be added.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] IRC bots
Hiyas hyperair As far as I understand it, Alan is involved with moot-bot at the development area. (These devs always scare me). Getting any of them installed would not be a problem, as previously stated lubuntu does have a lot of good will for the project. Hiyas yorvyk Are you hinting we should have a meeting:) Well, for the 10.10 maybe an idea? last meeting was in Feb when 10.04 was at alpha stage. Regards, Phill.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] IRC bots

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] IRC bots
Hi, that was the general idea of what I was told :-) although having a link to a wiki page does increase the chances of the addition being accepted as it will filter to all the ubots on all pages.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] IRC bots
Hi, Moot bot is the one I am suggesting be added for meetings, getting either added is not a problem. Being given permission by the team to do so is what I seek just as I always ask about doing things to the wiki area (the next level of that is going to take some time). I've gotten this far https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu but have been told that I need to consider how https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/DocumentationHelp is set up and needs to be split up into sub-pages to follow the wiki guide lines. IMHO we do need to allow a few minutes of time to what happens when the 'cheeky little baby meerkat' is released and lubuntu support gets busy when all these new people start to use it.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] IRC bots
Hi, with no votes against so far, i propose to put in a request for both IRC bots to be added in 24 hours; so, as they at weddings "speak now, or forever hold your peace" :-) It has been mentioned to me that we could (should) use #ubuntu-meetings for meetings, but until things settle down and we get full adoption, I do not see having the ability to host a meeting on #lubuntu as being a problem, it only adding an option. As always when I ask questions, I will take 'deafening silence' as an okay. I can see no negative side to #lubuntu that having the functionality that those two bots will bring. Anyone wishing to help with adding lubuntu specific factoids to the ubot please do say :-) (Oh, I'd better explain, a factoid is when you type in *!lxterminal* and the bot tells you where to get information on lxterminal).
