Arkivo has reached the heady heights of version 0.2! This version incorporates a complete rewrite of the IRC bot to allow it to connect to multiple servers. This means Arkivobot is no longer restricted to Freenode, but can roam the networks freely as is a bot’s want. Arkivobot is currently connected to Freenode and OFTC, but if you want your channel archived and you’re on another network I can easily accomodate you (email me for more details)
Because of the addition of multiple networks I had to change the URL structure. For example, to access the archive for #turbogears:
Old URL: http://irclog.turbogears.org/archive/turbogears/
New URL: http://irclog.turbogears.org/archive/freenode/turbogears/
This will prevent URL clashes in case a channel has the same name on two different networks. Arkivo is nice and freindly though; if you use one of the old URL’s you will be redirected and asked to update your bookmarks.
Also included in this version is a visible bot status and a bugfix to prevent the bot dying if it encounters encoding that isn’t supported by the channel.

Hi there, I emailed you recently about Arkivo. Could you please get back to me? (If you didn’t get the email, please tell me so I can resend.) Thanks for your attention.

Hi. I didn’t receive your mail I’m afraid… I think my spam filter is being a little heavy handed as I’ve had a few people contact me saying they sent me emails.
If you could send your request to spleeman at gmail or leave the server and channel details in the comments here I’ll get it sorted out for you as soon as I can.
