Hi all,

#ucc now possesses its own IRC bot, suitably called "murphy".

It runs on the python Supybot framework, and currently its primary purpose
is to read out the titles of links that get posted to the channel. It also
logs the channel for statistical/evil purposes.

If you are on wheel, the bot lives in /services/irc-murphybot on mussel,
and is managed with /etc/init.d/murphybot. Feel free to tinker. Supybot is
*very* configurable.

If you are not on wheel, but are interesting in experimenting with it, let
me know and we can probably work something out.

P.S. If for some reason you object to the bot, please click on the
following link, http://tinyurl.com/disablemurphy.
