Subject: Re: Rubot looks sketchy

Hi, I'm the rubot developer. I wrote rubot mainly for myself and am
using it for this bot: http://ardapedia.herr-der-ringe-film.de/index.php/Benutzer:Bot_Tom.
Actually, the version available from Rubyforge is somewhat outdated
and indeed sketchy. I have no clue where all does downloads came from
and I have not heard from anybody using this library besides myself.
