RE: What's the purpose of #webplatform-bot?

I mainly made it to have a central place to monitor stuff, like recent changes on the wiki, annotations and GitHub notifications. I don’t always have the respective feeds open in my browser, but I always have my IRC client open. :)

 

I don’t want to pollute the main channel with all this stuff, I see that on other channels and I don’t like it. The extra channel also serves as a testbed for the bot, to which I’ll add more features, once I get the chance to do so.

Doh! Yes, it’s logging code changes as well! That’s cool.

 

OK, that might be too much noise for the main channel.

Hi Julee, 

 

I have to say that I got aware of it myself only a few weeks ago.

 

But I think that being notified about code pushes and other type of contributions on IRC is quite helpful.

 

I think it would be even better if we send this to #webplatform itself.

 

Opinions?

Hi, folks:

 

We have the special pages that list the recent changes.[1] So what’s the purpose of the IRC channel #webplatform-bot?

 

Thanks for clarification!
