Hello everyone,
The fifth workshop on the topic of "Hosting bots and scripts on Toolforge" is coming up - it will take place on Thursday, June 30th at 16:00 UTC. You can find more details on the workshop and a link to join here: < https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Small_wiki_toolkits/Workshops#How_to_host_a_... [1].
This workshop will introduce participants to Toolforge, how to create a developer account, access it via ssh, create and run bots and scripts, etc. You can add your discussion ideas in the etherpad doc linked from the workshops page. To participate in this workshop, you would need basic familiarity with using command-line tools and technical knowledge of bots.
We look forward to your participation!
Best, Srishti

This is the best kind of update. Thanks Srishti and all organizing these :) Is there any sort of list of mothballed bots looking for good homes / maintainers?

I think basically every bot in the list would benefit from (more) maintainers:
IRC bots: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Bots
on wiki bots: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Bot_accounts
And in general bots that work on Gerrit probably need their equivalent in Gitlab and bots working on IRC might need their equivalent on Slack (which unfortunately became standard for many but lack both volunteers and bots).
Hello all,
The workshop starts in about 45 minutes (16:00 UTC).
See you soon.
