Very cool. Im interested in the maintenance port idea. Not sure how to go
about doing that. I also want a feature to crawl irc for information. That
way the bot would just be "out there". Lets start a channel to exchange
information somewhere. The bot can play a role in that.

Why not join forces to create a IRC-Bot that simply blasts all eggdrop-trash
away?
REBOL/Core is small enough to run on Shell-Accounts - it also supports
eough platforms - so it seems to be the perfect language for an IRC-Bot.
I plan following features:
- Maintenance-port that gives a REBOL-Prompt to extend/bugfix the bot at
runtime (Password authenticated with encrypted passwords)
- Several in-IRC commands (KICK,JOIN,SEEN,PART,PASS...)
- Different categories of users with configurable rights
- Inter-Bot-Communications (to work togehter when something happens)
- multiple server-connections from one REBOL process
- and more to come...
I've some experience in writing IRC-Bots. I've written a Bot with C++ and
another with Commn Lisp (fully runtime extensible through maintenance-port)
This bots run for several years now.

Jochen
