I have configured my IRC client to color bot messages in different color
so they stand out quite nicely currently. Still, when I stopped to think
about this separation issue, I decided it would be a good idea.
Why? Well, I have a habit of scrolling IRC backlog from top to bottom
and clicking on the URLs of various changed bugs to see what is going
on. Now, if there is a lot of discussion in between I keep getting
distracted between discussions by interesting people (also colored
differently) and bot announcements. If there would only be a channel
where only bots announce stuff.. :)
