Mozbot 2.4 is out! Things to look for since the last release:

• The KookBot module ("Think about the tyranny, malignant and unjust, and how it compares with truthful rational approach.").
• An XML Logging Module (see the sample output).
• A Conversion module (for converting hex to decimal, Fahrenheit to Centigrade, and so on).
• A Magic Eight Ball module.
• Mozbot now checks to see if it really joined a channel instead of blindly assuming it has.
• Added friendliness in the Infobot and Greeting modules.

There are also several other minor fixes that should make module development easier (you can now send /notices, for instance -- see the documentation). Download the [http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/webtools/mozbot-2.4.tar.gz source tarball] or read the [download.html#cvs instructions for updating mozbot using CVS] and have fun!

The Infobot module made it in at last! We also got an often-requested feature implemented in the God module, namely proper IRC hostmasks, thanks to Jake.
