Hey all,
Some of you may know our belowed robot, which is working as a slave in some of our dev channels. Unfortunately, freenode as well as wikimedia labs is a bit unstable, when it comes to network connectivity. So both freenode servers as well as internet connectivity of labs are occasionally down. This is causing some troubles to wm-bot who isn't really able to reconnect, given to laziness of its developers as well as complexity of multiple bouncers it is using.
Petr,
I was running a couple of recentchanges minibots (based on the UDP logging -> urdrec.c -> Python IRC module) pretty reliably.
The code is here https://bitbucket.org/plwiki/bot/src/ ("irc" module) but of course I am happy to help with hosting/reducing complexity and getting my hands finaly on C# if needed.
