Feature Request: Nickserv identification #34

Closed rikai closed 11 years ago

rikai commented 12 years ago

The network i'm using this on requires a person to be identified to a nickname to PM people by default, so Nickserv registration is pretty essential, otherwise all PMs from the bot are rejected.

Nickserv registration seems like a useful thing to make the bot perhaps also do basic channel managment later as well, if that functionality is desired.

A bit of further investigation reveals that integrating cinch-identify would likely solve this. :)

Edit: And delving deeper into that, it requires cinch 2.0, so either cinch would have to be updated, or the module backported.

Good point. I opened #36 to clarify what needs to be done.
