Re: [Jaimbot-developers] HI!

Hey Chris... I've never contributed to jaimbot either, but I did join the interest list because I thought the concept was cool. Been on the list for a year or so, and have never seen any activity. The reason I didn't contribute is that I am looking for a bot that supports sametime or jabber, rather than just AOL-- particularly jabber. I've been thinking of enterprise uses for such a bot, but my company uses jabber, not AOL. 

Have fun with it, and let us know if you modify and contribute back to JAIMBOT.

Subject: [Jaimbot-developers] HI! 

Hello. Introductions: 

I'm Chris. I'm a quite inexperienced programmer, though, sometimes people tell me otherwise. I'm mostly a sysadmin-turned-coder type. 

I've been playing with Java AIM Bot off and on for quite a while now. I have a lot of fun with it, especially the megahal part. I actually wrote some code to help train megahal by scraping bash.org , cleaning it up, and feeding the resulting lines to megahal. I also wrote a logger that would anonoymize and save the conversations in pretty html. That was fun, actually worked quite well, and, naturally, I've since lost the code. 

Anyhow I figured that since I like playing with JAIMBOT so much I should get a little more active and a little more involved and communicate at least a little. I'm hoping to work on some new features and commit them to the tree at some point. 

I'm new, I've never really contributed to an open source project, though I certainly have been around them for a long time. I'm also fairly new to the whole programming thing, and, well, most of my background is scripting (being a sysadmin) and that means I'll likely commit crimes against God and Man in the object oriented world from time to time. Feel free to correct me, I'm here to learn and have fun. 

My aim bot is CadeBot. Feel free to talk to him, but be warned- since I usually open him up to the world, he typically gets quite vulgar.
