A new PircBot Demo has been added: CommandBot

A simple PircBot bot to show a quick and easy way to add multiple commands to a bot. This allows the main bot class to stay clutter free and each command has a private space to store information.

This is the very first user contributed PircBot demo, so many thanks to AMcBain for this one!

What does the PircBot Java API have in common with cereal? What happens when a Ruby fan has too much time on his hands? Oh, and don't forget a love of IRC ... you get a nutty Ruby IRC API and a whole bunch of related projects. Head over to http://cerealbot.org/ for a fresh bowl of IRC madness, served to you by Raws.

The PircBot Demo AuthWithBot has been updated.

There was some code in the constructor that had been copy-pasted from another demo that caused it to quit while trying to load a file that wasn't there. It actually took 273 downloads of that before someone actually questioned that. Thanks to Wicked for taking the time to report this.

There seems to be a bit more of a buzz around OSGi recently so I thought I would post the quick version of PPF that I "OSGI-fied" last year to draw some interest, not only for the other plugin developers, but also for myself ... call it kicking myself up the bum ;) Anyway, it's been sitting in the betas section on this site for for a while, note there is a tutorial available and feel free to drop by #deaded on irc.quakenet.org anytime as well.

Jibbler has released his second book (IRC Hacks being the first). No, this one is not IRC related, but it will make trying to have a conversation with Monty (his faithful bot) seem possible in comparison!

So, with a sly grin, Jibbler presents Impossible Sudoku

QueriEd 2.6 has been released. Changes are:

• added support for WSW (Warsow) (thanks mcrandello)
• fixed BF2 server query
• added Q4 (Quake 4) support (mcrandello)
• added COD4 query type for convenience (already supported as it is the same as COD2 query)
• added getFullResponse() to ServerInfo to return the actual results from the details query. This can then be parsed as wanted.
