Ok, I was bold and created #mediawiki-feed let's configure it as we proposed. It will be +m and all bots will have voice. All devs who want +f in that channel so that they can configure flags and rules for bots, just ping me in #mediawiki
If there was some problem we can always put it back, I moved wm-bot feeds for now to that new channel

The important thing to do is to make the bots channel +m, so only the bots
can talk. Otherwise, development discussion will follow to the new channel and this is a bad thing.
Agreed. Forcing the bots separate from the devs will keep the discussion a lot easier to follow too, both in real time and especially when reading logs.
I'm also in agreement that giving the bots their own channel is a great idea. I don't get on #mediawiki that terribly often, but Bug #35427 that Petr showed us convinced me that it needs done sooner than later.
