personally i agree with having a botserv as well, but would like to see a
BotServ include tha capability of running TCL Scripts so as to replace the
need for eggdrops totally, hopefully there are enough who do want a bot serv
for IRCservices to get together and possibly create a addon module as i
still believe IRCservices is the best option (discounting the lack of
botserv)
