BrainzBot is a bot which logs all conversion in the MetaBrainz IRC channels. You can see all of the chat log archives at http://chatlogs.metabrainz.org/. BrainzBot will not log messages that start with "[off]", so feel free to use that if you have some sensitive messages.

MBChatLogger is a bot which logs all conversion in the MusicBrainz IRC channels. You can see all of the chat log archives at http://chatlogs.musicbrainz.org/.

===Commands===

* <code>MBChatLogger: off</code> - this turns logging off until MBChatLogger is told to begin logging again
* <code>MBChatLogger: on</code> - this turns logging on after MBChatLogger has been told to stop logging

MBChatLogger also responds to a small handful of random phrases but you'll just have to check out #musicbrainz to find out what those phrases are.

Revision as of 11:28, 15 September 2015

MusicBrainz uses two IRC channels for real-time chat and discussions. For more information about IRC in general, see the Wikipedia article. If you don't have an IRC client (such as mIRC or Colloquy), Freenode provides a web-based client.

Please note that all users of the IRC channels are expected to follow the Code Of Conduct.

Channels

The MusicBrainz community and support channel is #musicbrainz on irc.freenode.net

Among the regulars in this channel are quite a few of the developers as well as some of the auto-editors and other active MusicBrainz users. Anything related to MusicBrainz, including Picard and other MusicBrainz products, is welcome here. References to IRC in MusicBrainz generally refer to this channel. As in many communities, the regulars in the channel have their own slang.

The development and general MetaBrainz channel is #metabrainz on irc.freenode.net

Apart from MusicBrainz development, this channel also hosts general MetaBrainz talk, incl. discussion about all the other *Brainz projects: BookBrainz, CritiqueBrainz, AcousticBrainz, ListenBrainz, MessyBrainz, and the Cover Art Archive. There is a weekly dev chat held in this channel. A reminder is normally sent out to the developers mailing list Sunday night/Monday morning.

There are also channels in other languages than English:

BrainzBot

BrainzBot is a bot which logs all conversion in the MetaBrainz IRC channels. You can see all of the chat log archives at http://chatlogs.metabrainz.org/. BrainzBot will not log messages that start with "[off]", so feel free to use that if you have some sensitive messages.
