Nagzilla 2.0
Nagzilla was designed to be a Jabber relay "bot", in that it sits quietly in a room until it gets a message to relay to either a chat room or a person. The early work was based on several simple examples out on the Internet, but would just keep logging into a room every time the bot had something to say. It was made a daemon, which allows it to get Nagzilla alerts from various systems and event creators. Nagzillac (the client program) accepts any string input and makes it into a Jabber message. This should work with Google Talk (as it's Jabber-based), but that is untested.
Release Notes: The ability to send color coded messages was added. A better command line client was added. Presence sending and receiving was added. The foundation was laid for more rapid future changes.
