  1. Q: What happened?
    A: Please see this message in Root Access chat. This decision is the primary reason for asking this question on meta.SU. But before you make any judgments or conclusions, please read the other statements of fact which follow.
  2. Q: What is the chat bot's account name?
    A: ChatBot John Cavil.
  3. Q: Where is the source code for the chat bot located, and what is its source code lineage?
    A: This chat bot is based on the JavaScript ChatBot implemented by ZirakZirak. Its code is located on GitHub. There are three repositories of interest: My Driver written in Java, which provides login functionality only; Zirak's base ChatBot; and my minimal changes as a friendly fork of Zirak's bot. The primary purpose of my changes is to adapt the functionality of the ChatBot to the Root Access chatroom, insofar as the existing code is specifically tuned for the JavaScript chatroom, which is the original home of Zirak's ChatBot.
  4. Q: Where else is a similar ChatBot (based on Zirak's code) hosted in chat rooms on the SE network?
    A: In the aforementioned JavaScript chatroom, as well as the Android chatroom, and perhaps others that I am not aware of. Some users in other rooms have expressed interest in having one, but have not yet put the hosting infrastructure in place to host one.
  5. Q: Are bots allowed on the SE network in general?
    A: It would appear that they are. I completely understand the proviso that SE has the final say regarding what they consider allowable and what is not considered allowable. I am eager to work with SE and the other ChatBot maintainers to ensure that these bots meet community standards and can continue to be a part of the flavor of the chat rooms for a long time.
