  Hello Benjamin,

  This bot is not endorsed by MySQL AB. While it was kind of Sherzod to
  try to improve the utility of the list, the bot makes the list more
  difficult to use. He has disabled the bot after complaints from list
  users.

  I believe that it would be best for the bot service to be opt-in. I
  personally dislike the idea of a private automated response system for
  an otherwise public list.

  Cheers!
