Using MeetBot for IRC Meetings

Meetbot is an IRC plugin that has been installed to pinesol_green to facilitate and support the various meetings that take place in the Evergreen IRC channel.

Full manual: http://meetbot.debian.net/Manual.html

General Usage Commands

#startmeeting

If you include any text after the command, it will become the meeting topic.
Example: #startmeeting 2012-01-31 - Developer Meeting

#topic

This command sets the topic of discussion.
Example: #topic When will 2.2 be released?

#info

This command logs a note about a given topic.
Example: #info 2.2 is likely to be released in March 2012.

#agree

This command logs when the group "agrees" to a particular course of action.
Example: #agree Let's work together on 2.2 release process.

#action

This command logs an action item for the meeting.
If you specify a user in the action, it will target that user for the task.
Example: #action bshum to finish more of the MeetBot usage guide.

#idea

This command logs an "idea" for future reference.
Example: #idea It would be great if we tried using MeetBot more often to track meeting notes.

#help
