Since the can is open, you may as well consider perl-fu also.  It's
not an offshoot of infobot, but it replicates many of infobot's
features.  http://android18.slim.summitmedia.co.uk/perl-fu2.html

If POE::Component::IRC is part of infobot's future versions, you
should be aware that its current maintainer is working on a plugin
framework to be included with it.  One True Plugin Framework might
help unify various bot initiatives.  You may consider discussing how
infobot/blootbot/flooterbuck work with plugins so P::C::I does the
right thing out of the box.
