Not funny. You are entitled to your opinion, but this is infantile and uncalled for. Cary Gordon The Cherry Hill Company http://www.chillco.com On Dec 3, 2007, at 10:53 AM, Andrew Nagy wrote: Stop right there, did you say coldfusion? I think I just threw up in my mouth a little. :)

If you used this you might then be able to use the vast universe of free/libre IRC bots. best, Erik Hetzner ;; Erik Hetzner, California Digital Library ;; gnupg key id: 1024D/01DB07E3 pgpyDwijXzOHE.pgp Description: PGP signature
Re: [CODE4LIB] open source chat bots?
Karen, we are building out a custom chat reference system with our new website redesign based on jabber. Basically you will see all of the reference librarians who are logged in to the jabber server with a little picture/avatar along with their specialty areas. The question is - who becomes the catch all - general reference librarian. So we wanted to experiment with a chat bot and a reference script one of our reference librarians wrote up. So if the student is totally clueless and doesn't know which librarian to pick - they can chat with a chat bot or maybe we will hire Ms. Dewey! Dunno if it will work out well - but something we want to play around with. Then we could hook it up to our libstats implementation and automatically record all transactions. An idea that we are just experimenting with at this stage. I'll let you know when/if I get something up and running.

Andrew, Not sure if this is what you're looking for, but in ColdFusion 7, Stop right there, did you say coldfusion? I think I just threw up in my mouth a little. :) I would rather something available in java, c, c#, perl, php, etc. I was thinking about making my own - but I have too much on my plate as is so I am looking to hack something in the open source market. Thanks Andrew
