Comment by spang:

It would be so awesome to be able to link to an OpenHatch tutorial/training mission for IRC from my project's "contact" page with our IRC details! Some notes from IRC:

15:44 < paulproteus> Gosh I really really would love an IRC training mission. 15:45 < paulproteus> You'd learn about /me and highlighting people and it'd be so cool. 15:45 < christine> paulproteus: yeah, that would rock! 15:45 < paulproteus> Maybe we could teach you DCC and !list 15:45 * paulproteus chuckles.

There are various IRC tutorials around the web, but I think we should start with something simple, ignoring having a permanent IRC session (that could be an IRC level 2 mission) and just getting online and joining a channel via a graphical client like xchat.

Nother issue created that's similar, adding tag this-would-rock

Comment by palhmbs:

adding some superseder links - and nosies....

Comment by paulproteus:

The next step is to come up with a good plot.

I can try to do that. I'm pretty excited about doing that. It'll need review from others after I think I'm done.

I would thrilled-ly mentor anyone who wanted to make that plot a reality during July.

Possible plot: http://lists.openhatch.org/pipermail/devel/2011-September/002396.html

Comment by paulproteus:

Not yet done, so moving out of 0.11.10.

Comment by paulproteus:

FYI, there is work-in-progress code in the "missions" branch of stump's fork here: https://github.com/stump/oh-mainline/tree/missions

Comment by satyaakam:

Hi, The code from stump's fork works fine here are the steps to run the code

1) start the /missions/mysite/manage.py runserver

2) $/missions/mysite/missions/python ../manage.py irc_missionbot

3) login into the site http://localhost:8000/missions/irc

as per the following mission bot message it handles only one user at a time

<oh_bottest> Hi! Nice to have another person here. We're busy but we try to be friendly. Say, do you know the answer to the question in the topic?

when login from the web.freenode.net i do not see the message in in private

Comment by bsilverberg:

I have created an etherpad to discuss the new plot that Asheesh recommends using. It's at https://etherpad.mozilla.org/oh-irc-mission. I am going to work on the back-end bot code if someone else is interested in working on the front-end django templates.

Comment by bsilverberg:

I also fixed the issue where the bot's private message cannot be seen, but I think we're going to change the behaviour so it will be a channel message anyway.

Comment by bsilverberg:

Here is the branch I have created which resolves merge conflicts with master and fixes issues so that both the templates and the bot work with the current code base: https://github.com/bobsilverberg/oh-mainline/tree/irc_mission

Another stale training mission update. Would like to see if we can still merge this.
