<DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Subject:</B> [IRCServices] Question about
possible future feature</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>Will there be a botserv or similar functions in services 5.0? I
noticed<BR>quite a few (including us) use operserv raw (cept we do it through
a hack to<BR>services instead of just doing /operserv raw) to create virtual
users to<BR>hold channels open. Maybe this can be expanded on where they act
like<BR>chanserv, or maybe a module could be written or something. It'd be a
nice<BR>feature to actually have with services rather than have to make sure
our<BR>hack works with each update we do (we try to only update when a major
bug is<BR>being fixed for this reason). If this is too
confusing...ummm...well...I'll<BR>try to expand on it if I need
to.<BR><BR>Beau (Strider) Steward<BR>chatcircuit administrator and 6bit band
