[mythtv-users] Myth Jabber bot

[Ian Barton]

Over the last couple of days I have put together a very simple jabber 
bot. It's designed to do a few simple things to let me check on my Myth 
box via my mobile phone:

* List of last 10 recorded programs.
* List of next 10 upcoming recordings.
* Per channel listings for the current day
* Various bits of information from the Myth backend xml page.

You can run it on your backend. However, if you can access your myth 
database remotely it should run on any system that can run Python. I 
have tested it with Googletalk and Openfire.

In use you simply send send the bot an IM and it replies with whatever 
status info you requested.

Would anyone be interested if I made this generally available? If so how 
do I go about submitting it to the contrib part of MythTV?

This is my first ever Python program, so try to be kind:) One of the 
reasons for writing it was to learn Python. If anyone wants to help 
refactor it I can make it available via bzr or svn.

Ian.
