Melanobot v2

A not so simple IRC bot.

This bot aims to be extremely flexible in its capabilities and act not only as a simple bot but also as a group of bots contained in a single process. It tries to provide a wide variety of available functionality and great room for extensibility.

For more detailed information on the bot and how to set up an instance, see https://wiki.evil-ant-colony.org/doku.php?id=melanobot:melanobot

Note: The v2 is to distinguish it from a previous implementation of a similar concept. This core components project are still being development and interfaces are not yet to be considered stable.
