Infobots

The main infobot is called ubotu. He is owned and operated by cafuego. This bot contains the facts database and is active in #ubuntu. Details on how to operate him can be found on the UbotuUsage page. The fact database can be found on http://ubuntu.cc.com.au

The second infobot is Ubugtu and is only active in #ubuntu-desktop and #launchpad where he listens fro bugzilla/malone urls and bugnumbers and will give info about the mentioned bugs.

Registration

Lately freenode has become infected with spambots. To combat them, the main ubuntu channel is sometimes closed to unregistered users. Registering on freenode is really easy, see www.freenode.net/faq.shtml#nicksetup for the details on registration. In the future Ubuntu members with registered nicknames will be able to get an Ubuntu hostname cloak.
