For those who want to fool around or are just curious, I've posted source code for the IRC nikkybot. At the moment, it's a bit disorganized, with debug code scattered all over the place, and not too well documented. I'll be happy to answer questions about it, though. I need to take a break from developing it and try to clean up/refactor some things. Another thing to remember is that it's in a perpetual state of flux (everything is pretty much done by editing the code directly rather than config files). Don't be surprised if you look at the repository one day and then come back and find everything completely changed. Have fun!
