Bots

This page holds contact information on the various IRC bots running in Ubuntu IRC channels and some Ubuntu related channels. Please add your bot to this list.

ubuntulog Terms

ubuntulog can be joined to official project channels to provide official Ubuntu logging, which will appear on Ubuntu's official irclogs page. You can ask for ubuntulog to be added to any official Ubuntu by emailing the request to rt@ubuntu.com. If ubuntulog is present in your channel, you must add the following entry message, or a translated version of the message, via ChanServ:

Welcome to #channel. This channel is publicly logged at irclogs.ubuntu.com. Use of this channel implies acceptance of the terms at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/TermsOfService

Some translated versions of the Terms of Service are also available here. The owner(s) of the channel also add the message with the following command:

/msg ChanServ SET #channel ENTRYMSG Welcome to #channel. This channel is publicly logged at irclogs.ubuntu.com. Use of this channel implies acceptance of the terms at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/TermsOfService

You can modify the contents entry message if necessary, as long as you clearly get across the fact that the channel is being logged and that use of the channel implies acceptance of the terms at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/TermsOfService. LoCo teams are encouraged to translate that page if required.

Info Bot Channels

There are different bots for different channels. If you need a bot in your Ubuntu or related channel, you can ask from the bot maintainers in #ubuntu-bots.

The current policy for which bot goes to which channel is as follows:

  • ubot93 -> Ubuntu IRC channels; External, but Ubuntu related IRC channels.

Matterbridge

Multi-protocol chat bridge. Not all bridges are configured to be multidirectional - some channels (such as -flavors) are configured to only be an 'input' relay to relay to Telegram or other chat platforms. Can be asked to bridge only official channels (for Ubuntu and official flavors) under the purview of the IRC Council.

External Bots

The IRC Council may also grant external public log bots to log certain channels, on the following conditions:

  • Channel has 'UbuntuIrcCouncil' as contact with chanserv.

  • Channel is already logged at irclogs.ubuntu.com by 'ubuntulog'.
  • The bot satisfies all libera.chat rules and guidelines, is not anonymized and is easily identifiable by nickname.

Please make sure you contact the IRC Council before your bot joins any channels.
