Subject: Re: Freeze break request: disable fedmsg-irc bots in most channels
Sounds good to me +1, I would just give a short wait period
before doing it to give people a chance to let us know if they
would like to keep any of the bots.

Currently, the fedmsg-irc role connects a number of IRC bots to
libera.chat IRC. (Usually 2 per channel, one for production and one for
staging). These bots then send fedmsgs that match a specific regex to
the channel they are in.
As part of setting up matrix rooms and bridging them to IRC, we have
realized how noisy these bots tend to be. In almost all cases the
tickets/message/event is sent to people who care about it via email or
personal FMN notification, so the message in the channel is just noise.
Additionally, these fedmsg-irc bots don't have a ton of flexability in
what they match on, for example if you say 'perhaps we should add a
badge for this' in a ticket, it will then forever notify the
#fedora-badges channel about any changes to that ticket.
Additionally, fedmsg-irc is python2 and tied to fedmsg (not
fedora-messaging). If we can get rid of all use of them that saves us
some replacement costs.
So, I would like to drop all these bots, except for #fedora-fedmsg and
#fedora-fedmsg-stg. I personally think those channels are useful as you
can watch the bus flow and tell things about it's health and see overall
changes you might not otherwise notice. They might be replaceable by a
more simple bot someday.
Of course there may be some use case I am not seeing here, so if you
_DO_ want these messages in your channel/room still, please tell us!
Or if there's some other set of messages that would be of use that would
be good to know too, so we could take it into account when/if we work on
a matrix bot.
Affected channels:
#fedora-admin
#fedora-commops
#fedora-python
#fedora-releng
#fedora-latam
#fedora-g11n
#ipsilon
#pagure

https://pagure.io/fedora-infra/ansible/pull-request/811 is the PR with
the changes.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Flame wars in
sci.astro.orion. I have seen SPAM filters overload because of Godwin's
Law. All those moments will be lost in time... like posts on a BBS...
time to shutdown -h now.
