Jeeves IRC replacement now alive - Willikins

This is a copy+paste from my email to the gentoo-dev mailing list, simply because some developers and users follow the RSS feeds rather than read email. If you want the bot in your channel and you are a channel founder/lead op, please respond on the thread in the mailing list

Hi folks,

Sorry that it's taken this long to get completed, but the Jeeves
replacement, Willikins, is finally 99% done, and ready to join lots of
channels.

Getting the bot out there
-------------------------
If you would like to have the new bot in your #gentoo-* channel, would
each channel founder/leader please respond to this thread, stating the
channel name, and that they are the contact for any problems/troubles.

Bug reports
-----------
Please open a bug in the Gentoo Infrastructure product, using the
'Other' component, and assign it directly to me.

Custom bot functionality:
-------------------------
Here's all the functionality that we have assembled, beyond the standard
rbot stuff.
Bugzilla
========
!bug [ZILLA] ID
Looks up bug #ID in the per-channel default or specified bugzilla.

!bugstats [ZILLA]
Totals of bugs per the bugzilla 'status' field.

!archstats [ZILLA] [STATUS] [RESO]
Totals of bugs per architecture, optionally with some specific set of
status or resolution values, comma delimited.

status = OPEN, DONE, UNCONFIRMED,NEW,ASSIGNED,REOPENED, RESOLVED, VERIFIED, CLOSED
Reso = FIXED, INVALID, WONTFIX, LATER, REMIND, DUPLICATE, WORKSFORME,
       CANTFIX, NEEDINFO, TEST-REQUEST, UPSTREAM
zilla = gentoo xine sourcemage redhat mozilla kernel fdo abisource
        apache kde gnome
If you want another bugzilla, file a bug.

Gentoo-specific
===============
!meta [-v] [CAT/]PACKAGE
Print the metadata and optionally herd members for a given package.

!changelog [CAT/]PACKAGE
Changelog stats for a package

!devaway list
List all away developers.

!devaway DEVNAME
Display .away message for a single developer.

!herd HERD
Show herd members

!expn NAME
Show the expansion of any public Gentoo mail alias

!glsa GLSAID
Shows the title and external IDS for any given GLSA ID.

!earch [CAT/]PACKAGE
Earch output for a given package

!rdep [CAT/]PACKAGE
Reverse RDEPEND for a given package

!ddep
Reverse DEPEND for a given package

What isn't supported yet
------------------------
1. !glsa -s TEXT
This used to search for GLSAs that matched that string in their title or
external IDS.

2. New bug announcements
Jeeves used to announce brand new bugs to #gentoo-bugs as well as
targeted channels or users, depending on the product, component,
assignee, cc and a number of other factors (deeply nested if/else
trees). The old implementation had this in code entirely, and it would
be nice to avoid having to modify the code whatsoever, and instead have
some domain-specific language for doing this.

Source availability
-------------------
Gentoo specific:
http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/rbot-gentoo.git
Bugzilla support:
http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/rbot-bugzilla.git
(flameeyes has his own tree as well, but he's been sick lately, so it
was lagging behind my development)

Right now, if you want to run your own instance of the bot, you will
need the latest Git tree of the rBot itself, as upstream only fixed the
last remaining issue a couple of hours ago.

Thanks to
